Chart 2: Test OVCO Circuit

Yes

No

1.  Unplug alternator-to-regulator harness from regulator.

2.  Connect DMM red lead to harness plug socket B.

3.  Connect DMM black lead to harness socket 2. Does resistance read 1.0-1.5 ohms?

Alternator is faulty

Replace existing regulator with known good regulator. Run engine. Does OVCO trip?

Yes

No

Alternator is faulty

Yes

No

1.  Connect DMM red lead to harness plug socket 2.

2.  Connect black DMM lead to alternator B– terminal. Does resistance read <1 ohm?

Alternator is faulty

Original regulator is faulty

Yes

No

1.  Unplug alternator-to-regulator harness from regulator.

2.  Connect DMM red lead to harness plug socket C.

3.  Connect DMM black lead to harness socket 2. Does resistance read 1.0-1.5 ohms?

Alternator is faulty
