SPARE 20A FUSE

Never use a f use with a rating
greater than specif ied. Serious
damage to the electrical system
could result.

The battery-charging circuit and the
electric starter relay circuit are
protected by the 20-ampere fuse. If
the fuse burns out, the engine will
not charge the battery, and the
electric starter will not operate. The
engine can be started using the recoil
starter or the emergency starter rope.

Before further operation, try to
determine and correct the electrical
problem that caused the fuse to
burn out. An uncorrected electrical
problem may cause the fuse to
burn out again.

Reinstall the fuse case lid and the
engine cover.

Fuse Replacement

With the engine stopped, remove
the engine cover.

Remove the fuse case lid.

The ignition switch is also protected
by the 20-ampere fuse. If the fuse
burns out, the engine will not start or
run, and the power tilt switch will not
operate.

Remove and inspect the fuse. If
burnt out, install a replacement
fuse of the specified rating. The
outboard motor only comes with
one spare fuse in the fuse holder.
