RECHARGE CIRCUIT CHECK
General informations

Care and maintenance of the sealed battery
The job of the charge system is to supply a flow of
current to the battery at a maximum voltage of 14.7
Volts; a defective system might not charge the battery
correctly (requiring frequent charging).
Before checking the recharge circuit, make sure that:
– the connections are correct;
– the earth connections are firmly attached;
– the battery is charged and not sulphated;
– the fuse is not blown.
Checking the lower charging limit
Start the engine and keep it running at a minimum.
With the voltmeter tester, measure the voltage at the
battery terminals. If the value does not rise but tends
to fall, even slowly, it means that the regulator is not
charging sufficiently and must be replaced.
If the voltmeter shows no value it means that the fuse
is blown.
