Throttle Switch

  2. If switch does not respond as described, fully depress and hold accelerator pedal. Loosen throttle switch and move switch until ohmmeter reading changes from infinity reading to 0 ohms. Tighten switch.
  3. Roller of switch should be centered on curved arm of throttle lever. If switch cannot be adjusted as described, replace throttle switch.
