4. Electric System
4.1 Inspection of Charging System
4.1.1 Electric Leakage Test
a) Turn the main switch to the "OFF" position.
b) Disconnect the negative ground wire from the battery.
c) Connect the positive end of the ammeter with the negative end of the battery;
Connect the negative end of the ammeter with the ground wire.
d) Test the electric leakage.
In general, it demands the number less than 1mA; if it is unusual, inspect if there is short circuit
of the main switch or the main wiring.
4.1.2 Inspection of Charging Status
a) Install the fully charged battery.
b) Connect the voltmeter between the binding posts of the battery.
c) Remove the fuse, and connect the ammeter with the two ends of the fuse.
d) Connect the tachometer with the engine (it's not needed when there is a rpm indicator on the
vehicle).
e) Start the engine, and accelerate slowly;
Measure the charging voltage and current.
Charging voltage (V)
13.5-15.5
Charging current (A)
0.5
Note:
Measuring condition: 5000 r/min
If the voltage isn’t in the range of the above-specified value, please inspect the voltage
regulator.
4.2 Battery
The battery is an important component of the electric system. This battery used on the vehicle is a
maintenance-free battery. For long periods of storage, the battery will discharge by itself, so it
should be charged every 3 months. After 2 - 3 years of regular usage, the capacity of the battery
will descend, so it will need to be replaced with a new one of the same type.
4.2.1 Removal
Shut down the main switch to make sure that no electric current goes through the
vehicle.
