- Remove the storage box (see Storage Box Removal in the Frame chapter).
- Disconnect the intake air pressure sensor connector [A].
- Remove:
Screw [B]
Plate [C]
Intake Air Pressure Sensor [D]
Intake Air Pressure Sensor Installation
- Replace the O-ring [A] with a new one.
- Install the intake air pressure sensor [A] to the throttle body assy.
- Install the plate so that the projection [B] on the plate fits to the hollow [C] on the throttle body assy.
- Tighten the screw.
- Connect the intake air pressure sensor connector.
- Reset the throttle sensor position and idle speed control valve actuator position (see How to Reset Throttle Sensor Position and Idle Speed Control Valve Actuator Position).
Intake Air Pressure Sensor Input Voltage Inspection
NOTE
- Be sure the battery is fully charged.
NOTE
- Be sure the battery is fully charged.
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Remove the storage box (see Storage Box Removal in the Frame chapter).
- Disconnect the intake air pressure sensor connector and connect the
measuring adapter [A] between these connectors.
[B] Main Harness
[C] Intake Air Pressure Sensor
Special Tool - Measuring Adapter: 57001-1700
- Connect a digital meter [D] to the measuring adapter leads.
Intake Air Pressure Sensor Input Voltage
Connections to Adapter:
Digital Meter (+) → R (sensor V/R) lead
Digital Meter (-) → BK (sensor G/P) lead
- Measure the input voltage with the engine stopped and with the connector joined.
- Turn the ignition switch on.
Input Voltage
Standard: DC 5 V
- Turn the ignition switch off.
If the reading is within the standard, check the output voltage (see Intake Air Pressure Sensor Output Voltage Inspection).
If the reading is out of the standard, remove the ECU and check the wiring for continuity between harness connectors.
- Disconnect the ECU and sensor connectors.
Wiring Continuity Inspection
ECU Connector [A] ←→
Intake Air Pressure Sensor Connector [B]
V/R lead (ECU terminal 6) [C]
G/P lead (ECU terminal 4) [D]
If the wiring is good, check the ECU for its ground and power supply (see ECU Power Supply Inspection).
If the ground and power supply are good, replace the ECU (see ECU Removal/Installation).
- Reset the throttle sensor position and idle speed control valve actuator position (see How to Reset Throttle Sensor Position and Idle Speed Control Valve Actuator Position).
Intake Air Pressure Sensor Output Voltage Inspection
- Measure the output voltage at the intake air pressure sensor in the same
way as input voltage inspection, note the following.
- Disconnect the intake air pressure sensor connector and connect the measuring adapter [A] between these connectors.
[B] Main Harness
[C] Intake Air Pressure Sensor
[D] Digital Meter
Special Tool - Measuring Adapter: 57001-1700
Intake Air Pressure Sensor Output Voltage
Connections to Adapter:
Digital Meter (+) → Y (sensor BK/Y) lead
Digital Meter (-) → BK (sensor G/P) lead
- Measure the output voltage with the engine stopped and with the connector joined.
- Turn the ignition switch on.
Output Voltage
Usable Range: DC 1.0 - 4.2 V [13.3 kPa (9.98 cmHg) - 120 kPa (90.0 cmHg)]
NOTE
- The output voltage changes according to the local atmospheric pressure.
- Turn the ignition switch off.
If the reading is out of the usable range, replace the sensor.
If the reading is within the usable range, remove the ECU and check the wiring for continuity between harness connectors.
- Disconnect the ECU and sensor connectors.
Wiring Continuity Inspection
ECU Connector [A] ←→
Intake Air Pressure Sensor Connector [B]
BK/Y lead (ECU terminal 27) [C]
G/P lead (ECU terminal 4) [D]
If the wiring is good, check the ECU for its ground and power supply (see ECU Power Supply Inspection).
If the ground and power supply are good, replace the ECU (see ECU Removal/Installation).
- Reset the throttle sensor position and idle speed control valve actuator position (see How to Reset Throttle Sensor Position and Idle Speed Control Valve Actuator Position).

Water Temperature Sensor (Service Code 12)
Water Temperature Sensor (ECU) Removal/Installation
NOTICE Never drop the water temperature sensor especially on a hard surface. Such a shock to the sensor can damage it.
- Remove the storage box (see Storage Box Removal in the Frame chapter).
- Drain the coolant (see Coolant Change in the Periodic Maintenance chapter).
- Disconnect the water temperature sensor connector [A].
- Remove the water temperature sensor [B].
- Replace the O-ring with a new one.
- Tighten:
Torque - Water Temperature Sensor (ECU): 12 N*m (1.2 kgf*m, 106 in*lb) - Fill the engine with coolant and bleed the air from the cooling system (see Coolant Change in the Periodic Maintenance chapter).
Water Temperature Sensor Resistance Inspection
- Refer to the Water Temperature Sensor Inspection in the Electrical
System chapter.
If the reading is within the standard, but the problem still exists, replace the ECU (see ECU Removal/Installation).

Kawasaki J300 - Service manual > Throttle Sensor Position and Idle Speed Control Valve Actuator Position Reset
How to Reset Throttle Sensor Position and Idle Speed Control Valve Actuator Position The ECU records the throttle sensor position and idle speed control valve actuator position. Therefore, the throttle sensor position and idle speed control valve actuator position have to be reset when throttle body, intake air pressure sensor, idle speed control valve actuator or ECU has been reinstalled.
Kawasaki J300 - Service manual > Vehicle-down Sensor (Service Code 15)
This sensor has a weight [A] with two magnets inside, and sends a signal to the ECU. But when the motorcycle banks 65º or more to either side (in fact falls down), the weight turns and the signal changes. The ECU senses this change, and stops the fuel pump relay, the fuel injector and the ignition system.
