In 2004, the overall system protection was implemented with a Maxi-Fuse. |
| The following quotation makes the point that fuses are often slow to react to overcurrent situations. It is critical to replace rated fuses with the same rating in order to properly protect the circuits.\\ | The following quotation makes the point that fuses are often slow to react to overcurrent situations.

| Pull the connector between the Stator & Regulator, 2-pin connector near the regulator. Use a multimeter set to the Ohms Scale to measure resistance for these tests. (Before checking resistance, always check that the meter reads '0' ohms when the meter leads are securely pressed together. If the meter reads any value above zero, subtract this value from any resistance readings you take.) | Pull the connector between the Stator & Regulator, 2-pin connector near the regulator.
