Yamaha YZF-R125 Service Manual: Starting circuit cut-off system operation
If the engine stop switch is set to "
" and the main switch is set to
"ON" (both switches are closed), the
starter motor can only operate if at least one of the following conditions is
met:
- The transmission is in neutral (the neutral switch is closed).
- The clutch lever is pulled to the handlebar (the clutch switch is closed) and the sidestand is up (the sidestand switch is closed).
The starting circuit cut-off relay prevents the starter motor from operating
when neither of these conditions
has been met. In this instance, the starting circuit cut-off relay is open so
current cannot reach the
starter motor. When at least one of the above conditions has been met, the
starting circuit cut-off relay
is closed and the engine can be started by pressing the start switch "
".
