CHECKING BATTERY CONDITION AFTER A CHARGE CYCLE
Read DANGER and WARNING on page 14-1.
It is common practice for technicians to check the condition of a set of batteries after they have charged to ensure
they have received a complete charge before the vehicle is used. With the PowerDrive Plus this practice is not neces-
sary. The onboard computer controls and monitors the charge cycle. If there is any problem during a charge cycle,
the battery warning light, located above the steering column in the center dash panel, will illuminate intermittently.
If the battery warning light is illuminated after a charge cycle, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide and Flow Charts
on pages 14-8 through 14-12. If the specified test procedures do not identify any problems, plug the DC cord into
the vehicle and let it charge until the charger shuts off automatically. If a problem is found, correct it and then
charge the vehicle. Normal voltage toward the end of a charge cycle should be approximately 59 to 63 volts while
the charger is still operating.
START CHARGE CYCLE
1. Disconnect the DC plug from the vehicle’s charger receptacle.
2. WAIT 20 SECONDS, then reconnect the DC cord. See following NOTE .
3. Monitor the ammeter for the charge rate. If the vehicle has not been driven since the last charge cycle and
the batteries are fully charged, the onboard computer will not perform a self-diagnostic test. The charge
cycle will begin and the ammeter will NOT drop to zero. If the vehicle has been driven, even if only a few
feet, the onboard computer will perform the self-diagnostic test; the ammeter will drop to zero for 2 to 3
seconds before the charge cycle begins.
• THE CHARGER WILL NOT OPERATE UNLESS A DELAY OF APPROXIMATELY 20 SECONDS IS OBSERVED.
• KNOWLEDGE OF BATTERY CHARGER WIRING AND COMPONENT TERMINOLOGY IS REQUIRED BEFORE
ATTEMPTING ANY REPAIRS
(FIGURES 14-4 AND 14-5, PAGES 14-7 AND 14-8) .
