[QUOTE="gixxerjasen, post: 1089977, member: 20220"] Ok, so I need some help here from the electronics folks. I got the GPS off of the bike and started taking readings. Fashioned me up some connectors and wires so I can get to them easier. Bad idea? Anyway, the service manual on page 8-235 says to connect your leads to the two outer terminals. I get OL while connected to those two terminals. However, if I connect to either of the outer terminals and the center one, then I get readings. This seems to follow what I'm reading about measuring potentiometers. Seems the center is the wiper...and unless Yamaha decided to wire it differently between the potentiometer and the connector, it looks about standard. The book says to connect the "Pocket Tester (Ω X 1K)" and measure maximum resistance. It should be between 4.0 - 6.0 kΩ And suddenly I'm into stuff I don't know. I measured both sides of the sensor with my multimeter set to 2K on the section marked Ω, and by turning the slotted part in the center, I get the ranges as follows. OL - .373 .315 - OL Can somebody tell me what this means? I'm reinstalling it now using the markers I made so I get it back where it was. Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
