4. Disconnect the black wire (1) of AC cord from charger AC circuit breaker (3).
5. Carefully cut the heatshrink that insulates the AC cord white wire (4) where it connects to the tan primary
coil wire.
6. Disconnect the AC cord white wire (4) from the primary coil tan wire.
7. Using a multimeter set for 200 ohms, place the red (+) probe on the terminal at the end of the black wire
(1). Test for continuity on each of the flat blades and then on the round pin of the AC plug. The tester
should indicate continuity on one flat blade only. If any other reading is obtained, the AC cord and plug
must be replaced.
8. Place the red (+) probe on the end of the green wire (2) and with the black probe check for continuity on
both flat blades and on the round pin of the AC plug
(Figure 5-17, Page 5-20)
. The tester should indicate
continuity on only the round pin. If any other reading is obtained, the AC cord and plug must be replaced.
9. Place the red (+) probe on the white wire (4) and check for continuity on both flat blades and on the
ground pin of the AC plug. The tester should indicate continuity on only one flat blade. If any other read-
ing is obtained, the AC cord and plug must be replaced.
10. If the correct readings were obtained, install the AC cord.
See AC Cord Installation on page 5-29.
DC Cord
1. Disconnect AC cord from the wall outlet and DC plug from the vehicle receptacle.
2. Remove the charger cover.
3. To check the continuity of the DC cord, disconnect the black wire of the DC cord from the fuse
(Figure 5-18, Page 5-24).
4. Disconnect the red wire of the DC cord from the ammeter.
5. Disconnect the blue wire from the blue wire assembly that connects to the charger relay.
6. Place the clip of the continuity tester on the red wire of the DC cord.
7. Place the continuity test probe on the positive (+) pin of the DC plug (positive (+) and negative (–) pins
are identified on the plug). If tester does not indicate continuity, the DC cord must be replaced.
8. Place the continuity test probe on the negative (–) pin of the DC plug. The tester should indicate no con-
tinuity. If tester indicates continuity, the DC cord must be replaced.
9. Place the continuity test probe on the unmarked (middle) pin of the DC plug. The tester should indicate
no continuity. If tester indicates continuity, the DC cord must be replaced.
10. Move the continuity test probe to the black wire of the DC cord.
11. Place the continuity test probe on the negative (–) pin of the DC plug. The tester should indicate conti-
nuity. If tester does not indicate continuity, the DC cord must be replaced.
12. Place the continuity test probe on the unmarked (middle) pin of the DC plug. The tester should indicate
no continuity. If tester indicates continuity, the DC cord must be replaced.
13. Move continuity test probe to the blue wire of the DC cord. Check for continuity at the middle pin. The
tester should indicate continuity. If tester does not indicate continuity, replace DC cord.
Transformer
The PowerDrive 2 battery charger transformer has two sets of coils: a primary coil and a secondary coil
(Figure 5-16, Page 5-19)
.
Primary Coil
1. Disconnect AC cord from the wall outlet and DC plug from the vehicle receptacle.
2. Remove the charger cover.
