TEST PROCEDURE 1 – BATTERIES / VOLTAGE CHECK
See General Warning, Section 10, Page 10-1.
NOTE:
The batteries must be properly maintained and fully charged in order to perform the following test
procedures. Battery maintenance procedures, including watering information and allowable min-
eral content, can be found in Section 14 of this manual.
See Battery Care, Section 14, Page 14-1.
The battery voltage can be displayed with the IQDM handset. If an IQDM handset is not available, proceed to

Batteries / Voltage Check with the IQDM Handset
Connect the IQDM to the vehicle.
1. Access the Test menu and select BATT VOLTAGE by using the SCROLL DISPLAY buttons. The IQDM
should indicate at least 48 volts with the batteries fully charged. If not, check for loose battery connec-
tions or a battery installed in reverse polarity. Refer to Section 14 – Batteries, for further details on battery
testing.
Batteries / Voltage Check without the IQDM Handset
1. With batteries connected and using a multimeter set to 200 volts DC, place red (+) probe on the positive
(+) post of the first battery in the series and the black (–) probe on the negative (–) post of the last battery
in the series
. The multimeter should indicate
at least 48 volts with the batteries fully charged. If not, check for loose battery connections or a battery
installed in reverse polarity. Refer to Section 14 – Batteries, for further details on battery testing.
