Electrical System

Fuses

There are three (3) fuses in the Workman electrical sys-

tem.

Two (2) of the fuses are located beneath the steering

column (Fig. 34). These fuses supply power to the fol-

lowing:

The upper 10 ampere fuse (F2) supplies power to the

on/off switch and switched circuits.

The lower 10 ampere fuse (F3) supplies power to op-

tional accessories.

The third fuse (F1) is located under the controller cover

beneath the cargo box (Fig. 35). This fuse is rated at 355

amperes continuous and allows current flow between

the batteries and the vehicle. If this fuse has failed, ve-

hicle operation will not occur.

Testing

CAUTION

When testing fuses for continuity with a multime-

ter (ohms setting), make sure that fuse is re-

moved from circuit.

IMPORTANT: Before removing fuse F1 (355 Amp)

for testing, open the battery circuit by removing one

of the battery cables (see Opening Battery Circuit in

the General Information section of this chapter).

Make sure on/off switch is turned OFF. Remove fuse to

check continuity. The test meter should read less than

1 ohm.

If fuse F1 was removed, torque the nuts that secure the

fuse from 45 to 50 in--lb (5.1 to 5.6 N--m).
