1980 Yamaha G1-E (36V - DC MOTOR) Service and Repair Manual

Electric G1 cars from 1980 carry model code G1-E, and Yamaha covered them in the manual issued as LIT-11616-G1-AE.

Three early model years are inside, 1979 through 1981, together with seven variants spanning both the two-stroke and the 36-volt DC motor cars.

Electrical work

Motor service, contactor and control circuit checks, charging system testing and the factory wiring diagram, each with the values Yamaha specified. On a forty-year-old car those specified readings are the difference between finding a fault and replacing parts hopefully.

Mechanical chapters follow with rear axle, brake, steering and front suspension procedures, giving wear limits and tightening torques, and the periodic maintenance schedule lists what should be inspected and how often. Because the volume treats the family as one, a chassis repair described for a carbureted car applies here unchanged.
