Kawasaki Ninja Service Manual: Crankshaft Sensor Peak Voltage Inspection

Kawasaki Ninja Service Manual / Electrical System / Ignition System / Crankshaft Sensor Peak Voltage Inspection

NOTE

Be sure the battery is fully charged.
Using the peak voltage adapter [A] is more reliable way to determine the condition of the crankshaft sensor than crankshaft sensor internal resistance measurements.

Crankshaft Sensor Peak Voltage Inspection

Disconnect the crankshaft sensor lead connector (see Crankshaft Sensor Removal).
Set the hand tester [B] to the DC 10 V range, and connect it peak voltage adapter.

Special Tools - Hand Tester: 57001-1394 Peak Voltage Adapter: 57001-1415 Type: KEK-54-9-B

Connect the adapter to the terminals of the crankshaft sensor lead connector [C].

Connections: Crankshaft Sensor Lead Connector Peak Voltage Adapter Hand Tester Y lead ← R lead → (+) BK lead ← BK lead → (–)

Turn the engine stop switch to run position.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Pushing the starter button, turn the engine 4 ∼ 5 seconds with the transmission in neutral to measure the peak voltage.
Repeat the measurements 5 times or more times.

Crankshaft Sensor Peak Voltage Standard: 1.9 V or more

If the reading is less than the standard, inspect the crankshaft sensor (see Crankshaft Sensor Inspection).

Crankshaft Sensor Inspection

Disconnect the crankshaft sensor lead connector (see Crankshaft Sensor Removal). Set the hand tester [A] to the × 10 Ω range and connect it to the crankshaft sensor lead connector ...

Timing Rotor Removal

Remove the crankshaft sensor cover (see Crankshaft Sensor Removal). Remove the timing rotor [A]. Holding the timing rotor with the flywheel & pulley holder [B] and unscrew the bolt [C]. ...

Storage of Removed Parts
After all the parts including subassembly parts have been cleaned, store the parts in a clean area. Put a clean cloth or plastic sheet over the parts to protect from any foreign materials that may collect before re-assembly. Inspection Reuse of worn or damaged parts may lead to serious acci ...

Spring Plate Free Play Measurement
Insufficient clutch free play will cause the engine braking effect to be more sudden, resulting in rear wheel hop. On the other hand, if the free play is excessive, the clutch lever may feel “spongy” or pulsate when pulled. Hold an extra drive shaft in a vise and install the following c ...

Water Pump Inspection
Remove the left lower fairing (see Lower Fairing Removal in the Frame chapter). Check the drainage outlet passage [A] at the bottom of the water pump body for coolant leaks. If the mechanical seal is damaged, the coolant leaks through the seal and drains through the passage. Replace th ...
