Indicator Lamps
See Instrument Lamps. Indicator lamps are located along the bottom of the instrument cluster.
The two green TURN indicator lamps flash when turn signals are activated; therefore,
flashing indicates the chosen turn direction. When the 4 way hazard flashers are operating,
both turn indicators flash simultaneously.
The blue HIGH BEAM indicator lamp, when lit, signals high beam headlamp operation.
The green NEUTRAL lamp, when lit, signals the transmission is in neutral gear.
The red ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE indicator lamp, when lit, signals the coolant
temperature has exceeded 243° F (117° C).
The red OIL PRESSURE indicator lamp, when lit, signals that oil is not circulating through
the engine.
NOTE:
The OIL PRESSURE indicator lamp will glow when the ignition is turned on prior to starting the
engine. With the engine running, the lamp should be off when engine speed is above idle.
Several other circumstances that could cause the red oil pressure indicator lamp to illuminate
include:
An insufficient or diluted oil supply causing the oil pressure indicator lamp to remain lit at
speeds above idling.
An oil feed clogged with ice and sludge in freezing weather, preventing oil circulation.
A grounded oil signal switch wire.
A faulty oil signal switch.
A damaged or improperly installed check valve.
Trouble with the oil pump.
If the oil pressure indicator lamp remains lit, always check
the oil supply first. If the oil supply is normal and the lamp
is still lit, stop the engine at once and do not ride further
until the trouble is located and the necessary repairs are
made. Failure to do so may result in engine damage.
