INSPECTION
CHARGING SYSTEM OUTPUT
First ensure that battery is in good condition prior
to performing the following tests.
NOTE:
It is good practice to check for fault
codes using the B.U.D.S. software as a first
troubleshooting step. Refer to
MONITORING
SYSTEM/FAULT CODES
section.
Output Voltage Test Using B.U.D.S.
Connect to the latest applicable B.U.D.S. soft-
ware. Refer to
COMMUNICATION TOOLS AND
B.U.D.S. SOFTWARE
section.
In B.U.D.S., select the
Monitoring
tab then the
ECM
tab.
Start engine.
NOTE:
Connect a garden hose to cool exhaust
system. Refer to
EXHAUST SYSTEM
subsection.
Bring engine RPM as specified in the following ta-
ble and read voltage in B.U.D.S.
OUTPUT VOLTAGE TEST USING B.U.D.S.
TEST ENGINE SPEED

1. Monitoring tab
2. ECM tab
3. Battery voltage
If voltage is above specification, replace voltage
regulator/rectifier.
If voltage is below specification, check stator
output and wiring harness prior to concluding that
voltage regulator/rectifier is defective. Refer to
PTO HOUSING AND MAGNETO
subsection.
Output Voltage Test Using a
Multimeter
Set multimeter to Vdc.
Connect multimeter to battery posts.

CHARGING SYSTEM VOLTAGE TEST AT BATTERY POSTS
Start engine.
NOTE:
Connect a garden hose to cool exhaust
system. Refer to
EXHAUST SYSTEM
subsection.
Bring engine RPM as specified in the following ta-
ble and read voltage with the multimeter.
OUTPUT VOLTAGE TEST USING A MULTIMETER
TEST ENGINE SPEED
VOLTAGE (DC)
5500 RPM
14.5 ± .5 Vdc
If voltage is above specification, replace voltage
regulator/rectifier.
If voltage is below specification, check stator
output and wiring harness prior to concluding that
voltage regulator/rectifier is defective. Refer to
PTO HOUSING AND MAGNETO
subsection.
Output Current Test with an Inductive
Ammeter
Use an inductive ammeter such as the
EXTECH IN-
DUCTIVE AMMETER (P/N 380941)
or equivalent.
Turn on the ammeter and select 40 Adc.
NOTE:
Zero set the ammeter before use or read-
ing may be erroneous.
Detach fuse box #2 from its support. Move fuse
box aside to gain access to charging system wire.
