CHARGING SYSTEM TESTS
Notice
In order to obtain accurate test readings, the battery must
be fully charged (see BATTERY CHARGING page 16-4).
REGULATED VOLTAGE
1.
Start the engine and warm it to operating temperature.
When the engine is warm, move the main switch to the
Off
position.
2.
Remove the battery cover strap and cover.
3.
Connect a voltmeter to the positive and negative battery
terminals.
4.
Start the engine and allow it to idle, then gradually
increase the engine speed to 3,000 rpm.
Standard:
14.0 - 14.8 V @ 3,000 rpm
If the regulated voltage is below standard, check the
alternator output (see ALTERNATOR OUTPUT page 16-5).

2. POSITIVE TERMINAL
3. NEGATIVE TERMINAL
ALTERNATOR OUTPUT
1.
Disconnect the wiring harness from the voltage regulator
connector.
2.
Check the connector for corrosion or loose connections.
3.
Connect an AC voltmeter to any two of the three
alternator wire terminals.
4.
Start the engine and run it at 3000 rpm while measuring
the AC voltage.
5.
Move one of the voltmeter probes to the remaining
alternator wire terminals and measure the AC voltage.
Standard:
60 to 70 VAC
If the output voltage from any combination of alternator wire
terminals is below standard, test the alternator stator (see
ALTERNATOR STATOR page 16-6) and inspect the alternator
rotor (see ALTERNATOR ROTOR INSPECTION page 16-8).
Notice
The output voltage should be checked after replacement
of any charging system component other than the
battery.
