6-6 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Step 5
1) Inspect the regulator/Rectifier. (
6-8)
Is the regulator/rectifier OK?
Step 6
1) Inspect wire harness.
Is the wire harness OK?
Battery overcharges.
• Faulty regulator/rectifier.
• Faulty battery.
• Poor contact of generator lead wire coupler.
INSPECTION
REGULATED VOLTAGE
• Remove the seat. (

.
• Start the engine and keep it running at 5 000 r/min.
Measure the DC voltage between the
+
and
-
battery termi-
nals using the multi-circuit tester. If the voltage is not within the
specified value, inspect the generator and regulator/rectifier.
(
6-7 and -8)
NOTE:
When making this test, be sure that the battery is in fully-charged
condition.
