Servo Assembly

  1. Disconnect ball chain from throttle linkage. Separate 8-way connector at amplifier, then connect an ohmmeter between the Orange/Yellow hash wire and Gray/Black hash wire at the connector. A resistance of 40-125 ohms should be obtained.
  2. Connect ohmmeter between Orange/Yellow hash wire and White/Pink hash wire at connector. A resistance of approximately 60-90 ohms should be obtained. Reconnect the ball chain to carburetor. Start the engine with the servo-to-amplifier connector disconnected.

  3. Connect Orange/Yellow hash wire of servo to battery positive terminal. Connect White/Pink hash wire to ground, and then momentarily touch Gray/Black hash wire of servo to ground. Servo throttle actuator should tighten bead chain and open throttle.
  4. Throttle should hold in that position or slowly release tension on chain. When White/Pink hash wire is removed from ground, servo should release bead chain tension immediately. If servo fails any of the preceding tests, replace the servo.
  5. If Orange/Yellow hash wire is shorted to either White/Pink hash wire or Gray/Black hash wire, it may be necessary to replace amplifier.
