Kawasaki Ninja Service Manual / Self-Diagnosis System / ESD (Electronic Steering Damper) Actuator Error (Service Code E2E, ZX1000JD/KD) / ESD Actuator Resistance Inspection

Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
Remove the electronic steering damper unit (see Steering Damper Removal in the Steering chapter).
Connect a digitalmeter to the ESD actuator connector [A].
Measure the ESD actuator resistance.

ESD Actuator Resistance Connections: BK lead [1] ←→ O lead [3] R lead [2] ←→Y lead [4] Standard: About 23 29 Ω

ESD Actuator Resistance Inspection

If the reading is out of the standard, replace the electronic steering damper unit.

If the reading is within the standard, check the input voltage (see Idle ESD Actuator Input Voltage Inspection).
