Melatv 792 Posted August 27, 2021 Hi: Remove the test light from the fuse holder --- go to the 5 pin connector -- meter on ohms scale -- check for continuity from the R/W wire to neg. of battery. Key Off 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melatv 792 Posted August 27, 2021 Go to where the 30 amp fuse main 1 with your meter check for 12 vdc -- black meter lead on neg. of battery -- red meter lead -- find which spot in the 30 amp main 1 holder has12 vdc on it -- the other spot should be dead. IF it is dead put your meter on the ohms scale and check from the dead stop (NOT THE LIVE SPOT) to the R/W wire on the 6 pin connector -- you should have continuity 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melatv 792 Posted August 27, 2021 From the Right side of the use holder to the R/W wire on the 5 pin connector should read zero. Un tape the wires at the fuse box and see what going on there. see which wire is getting hot. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tobor1 39 Posted August 27, 2021 So it’s not suppose to read .32. That could be the problem? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tobor1 39 Posted August 27, 2021 I peeled back wires everything looks clean but then again it would have to be something obvious as I’m not exactly sure what I’m looking for other than a burn or break. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melatv 792 Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) Leaving the cam-am for now ---- Let's start with is there any wiring on this bike that's been added like hand warmers, lights, winch and so on. Key off -- make sure your test light works -- place your test light into the 2 slots where the 30 amp main 1 fuse goes -- the light should not light up. Does it?

Tobor1 39 Posted August 27, 2021 Yes there were handwarmers on it and a thumb warmer but they were all destroyed so I remove them come to think of it the day this happened Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melatv 792 Posted August 27, 2021 Leave your test light in place and start plugging things back in noting when the light gets brighter -- key off at all times 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goober 1,555 Posted August 28, 2021 Look for out-of-place wires connected to the battery, fuse box and harness—even inside the headlight switch. Sometimes people use those quick connectors which damage the insulation. Or wire stuff to the inside of the control switch assemblies. Even though you think you did, You may have not removed everything installed by the PO 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melatv 792 Posted August 28, 2021 (edited) What ever it was or is -- has to be connected to the main 1 30 amp fuse. Key doesn't have to be on when the fuse blows Edited August 28, 2021 by Melatv 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tobor1 39 Posted August 28, 2021 And the main one only supplies the fan and shift motor? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tobor1 39 Posted August 28, 2021 Same. Fuse blew immediately. Will look at all wiring in daytime. Thank you for your help 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melatv 792 Posted August 30, 2021 (edited) Hi: Check for continuity between the 2 spots in the red -- should be no continuity Edited August 30, 2021 by Melatv 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
