Kawasaki Ninja Service Manual: Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Sensor Output Voltage Inspection

Kawasaki Ninja Service Manual / Self-Diagnosis System / Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Sensor (Service Code 34) / Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Sensor Output Voltage Inspection

NOTE

Before this inspection, confirm the pulley is original position (see Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Installation).

Disconnect: 3 Pins Connector [A] (see Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Sensor Output Voltage Inspection) 2 Pins Connector [B]

Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Sensor Output Voltage Inspection

Connect the harness adapter [A] between the 3 pins connectors.

Special Tool - Throttle Sensor Setting Adapter #1: 57001 -1400

Connect a digital meter to the harness adapter leads.

Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Sensor Output Voltage Connections to Adapter: Digital Meter (+) → BL (actuator Y) lead Digital Meter (−) → BK/BL (actuator BK) lead

Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Sensor Output Voltage Inspection

Measure the output voltage at the 3 pins connector of the exhaust butterfly valve actuator when the pulley is original position.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.

Output Voltage Standard: DC 3.46 3.76 V at pulley
original position

Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

If the reading is out of the standard, check the exhaust butterfly valve actuator sensor resistance (see Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Sensor Resistance Inspection).

If the reading is within the standard, remove the ECU and check the wiring for continuity between main harness connectors.

Disconnect the ECU and sensor connectors

Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Sensor Output Voltage Inspection

If the wiring is good, check the ECU for its ground and power supply (see ECU Power Supply Inspection in the Fuel System (DFI) chapter).

If the ground and power supply are good, replace the ECU (see ECU Removal/Installation in the Fuel System (DFI) chapter).

Idle Speed Inspection
Start the engine and warm it up thoroughly. With the engine idling, turn the handlebar to both sides [A]. If handlebar movement changes the idle speed, the throttle cables may be improperly adjusted or incorrectly routed, or damaged. Be sure to correct any of these conditions before rid ...

Front Forks/Rear Shock Absorber Operation Inspection
Pump the forks down and up [A] 4 or 5 times, and inspect the smooth stroke. If the forks do not smoothly or noise is found, inspect the fork oil level or fork clamps (see Front Fork Oil Change in the Suspension chapter). Pump the rear seat down and up [A] 4 or 5 times, and inspec ...

Tire Tread Wear Inspection
As the tire tread wears down, the tire becomes more susceptible to puncture and failure. An accepted estimate is that 90% of all tire failures occur during the last 10% of tread life (90% worn). So it is false economy and unsafe to use the tires until they are bald. Measure the tread depth a ...
