Title: neutral light out...how to fix? Post by irma on 09/17/07 at 15:24:53 the light is off could be the shut off switch on the bike stand? not familiar with bike yet Irma |
Title: Re: neutral light out...how to fix? Post by demin on 09/17/07 at 15:47:25 The first thing I would do is check the bulb. ;) |
Title: Re: neutral light out...how to fix? Post by splash07 on 09/17/07 at 17:44:28 My nuetral light just went out today and i am pretty sure it is just the bulb. If it were the cut off switch on the side stand then the bike wouldnt start. to change the bulb i assume that you need to remove the speedo tho i am not sure. |
Title: Re: neutral light out...how to fix? Post by irma on 09/17/07 at 17:49:55 my bike starts up in neutral when the stand is up/off...when the bike in on its stand & neutral does not start, could be the bulb still? |
Title: Re: neutral light out...how to fix? Post by demin on 09/17/07 at 17:56:23 Splash-yes you have to remove tank to get to it though.irma are you engaging clutch even though it's on the stand? |
Title: Re: neutral light out...how to fix? Post by justin_o_guy2 on 09/17/07 at 18:45:12 The wire going into the right side case is the neutral lamp wire isnt it? Isnt that a "denied ground" circuit, so that when the tranny is in neutral a ground is applied to the wire & that allows current thru the bulb. IF thats correct, AND there is 12 volts on that wire, then the neutral switch inside the tranny is ta fault. |
Title: Re: neutral light out...how to fix? Post by slavy on 09/17/07 at 23:19:15 Almost sure that the "N" sensor is bad. The "N" sensor is located under the clutch cover. There is a Blue wire that is going out from the right side and goes under the battery box and under the gas tank. There are only 2 options 1. bad "N" sensor /switch/ 2. Disconnected blue wire under the gas tank |
Title: Re: neutral light out...how to fix? Post by justin_o_guy2 on 09/18/07 at 00:42:11 How can anyone "KNow" its a sensor or a bulb? Until there is some troubleshooting done, it's just guessing. Seems a testlight would be the easiest thing to get on it. Clip on the ground & poke it carefully thru the insulation on the wire, with the key in "Run" & see if it lights up, if it does, its the switch, if not, either a wire isnt getting the 12 volts to the bulb or the bulb is busted. ( all that is IF the wire I am remembering IS the neutral lamp wire & IF the switch inside the cover provides a ground,) |

You'r right, the switch inside the cover provides a neutral. Try this: bike in ( any) gear, sidestand down, start the engine. When the engine starts, the neutral switch is f@@ckd or the wire is broken. When the engine does NOT start, the neutral circuit is Oke and the bulb is F@@cked. |

Don't forget that you still have to pull in the clutch lever. If you don't, your test will be F@@cked :P |
Title: Re: neutral light out...how to fix? Post by Kropatchek on 09/18/07 at 08:37:23 By "start the bike" I presume one knows how to start the engine: Contact on, pull clutchlever,check killswitch "ON", press startbutton. Did I forget something?????????????????? |

You said "in (any ) gear...start the engine". You presumed that one would pull in the clutchlever :P Why then do you suppose that Suzuki put that switch there? Some won't. 8) |
