BATTERY ANALYSIS
(Read Meter with LOAD Switch ON for MAXIMUM 10 Seconds)
LOAD TEST
BATTERY CONDITION
Good (Green)
Battery capacity is OK. Battery may or may not be fully
charged. Check specific gravity of battery to determine
state of charge. If specific gravity is less than full charge,
check for electrical drain or possible charging system
trouble. Recharge battery to full level.
Weak or Bad,
but Needle
remains Steady
(Yellow or Red)
Battery capacity is not satisfactory. Battery may be either
defective or not fully charged. Check specific gravity to
determine which condition exists. If charging does not bring
specific gravity to full charge level, battery should be
replaced.
Weak or Bad,
but Needle
remains Failing
(Yellow or Red)
Battery may be defective or very run down. Release load
switch and note volt meter reaction. Voltage recovery to 12
volt or above within seconds indicates defective battery.
Slow voltage recovery indicates run down condition. For
best results, check specific gravity.
Charging System
(White)
If the display meter needle reads OK, charging system is
functional. If it falls on the low red or high red areas,
charging system may be malfunctioning.
