FUSE COVER
The electric starter relay circuit and battery charging circuit are
protected by a 5-ampere fuse. If the fuse burns out, the electric starter
will not operate. The engine can be started manually if the fuse burns
out, but running the engine will not charge the battery.
Frequent fuse failure usually indicates a short circuit or an overload in
the electrical system. If the fuse burns out frequently, take the engine
to a servicing Honda dealer for repair.
Never use a fuse with a rating greater than 5 amperes. Serious
damage to the electrical system or a fire could result.
Remove the 6 12 mm screw from the rear cover of the engine
switch box.
Remove the rear cover, and inspect the fuse.
If the fuse is burnt out, remove the fuse cover, then pull out and
discard the burnt-out fuse. Install a new 5-ampere fuse, and reinstall
thefusecover.
Reinstall the rear cover. Install the 6 12 mm screw and tighten it
securely.
