ELECTRIC VEHICLE - BATTERY CHARGER Test Procedures
15
3. With a multimeter set to 500 volts AC, check incoming AC voltage. Insert multimeter test probes into AC wall
outlet; voltage should be between 85 and 270 volts.
See AC Input Voltage Detection on page 15-4. If proper
voltage is not present, have building wiring checked by a licensed electrical contractor.
4. If the charger will not power ON, check AC cord connections.
5. If the charger is connected correctly, check continuity of the AC cord wires.
TEST PROCEDURE 6 – Charger DC Circuit Continuity Test
1. Disconnect the AC cord from the wall outlet and the DC cord from the vehicle charger receptacle.
2. Remove DC terminal block cover. See Terminal Block Cover Removal on page 15-32.
3. Note polarity and loosen screws securing DC cord wires. Pull wires from DC terminals on charger.
4. Check continuity of the DC cord wires from plug pin to fork terminal.
5. When finished, attach DC cord white wire to positive terminal (+) and black wire to negative terminal (–) with torx
screws.
See following NOTE. Tighten torx screws to 39.8 in·lb (4.5 N·m).
NOTE: The positive symbol (+) and negative symbol (–) are molded into the terminal block for easy identification.
6. Install terminal block cover. See Terminal Block Cover Installation on page 15-33.
TEST PROCEDURE 7 – Charger Output Test
Without a Meter: Connect DC cord and start a charge cycle. If buzzer sounds three times, then charger is functioning.
Both a confirmed connection with the charger and a rise in battery pack voltage are required for buzzer to sound
three times.
See following NOTE.
NOTE: The number of flashes and beeps can vary depending on the Beep Option setting. See Beep Option,
Section 11, Page 11-8.
With a Meter: A clamp meter can be used to measure current in the red battery cable (connected to the positive (+)
post of battery no. 1) while charging. Current can reach just over 13-amps at the beginning of a charge session
and taper down to approximately 5-amps near the end.
