Electrical System Quick Checks
Battery Test
Use a multimeter to measure the voltage between the
battery terminals.
Set the multimeter to the DC volts setting. The battery
should be at a temperature of 60
o
to 100
o
F. The ignition
key should be off and all accessories turned off. Connect
the positive (+) meter lead to the positive battery post
and the negative (--) meter lead the the negative battery
post.
Note: This test provides a relative condition of the bat-
tery. Load testing of the battery will provide additional
and more accurate information.
Voltage Measured Battery Charge Level
12.68 V (or higher) Fully charged (100%)
12.45 V 75% charged
12.24 V 50% charged
12.06 V 25% charged
11.89 V 0% charged
Charging System Test
This is a simple test used to determine if a charging sys-
tem is functioning. It will tell you if a charging system has
an output, but not its capacity.
Use a multimeter set to the DC volts setting. Connect the
positive (+) meter lead to the positive battery post and
the negative (--) meter lead to the negative battery post.
Leave the test leads connected and record the battery
voltage.
NOTE: Upon starting the engine, the battery voltage
will drop and then should increase once the engine is
running.
NOTE: Depending upon the condition of the battery
charge and battery temperature, the charging system
voltage will increase at different rates as the battery
charges.
Start the engine and run at high idle. Allow the battery
to charge for at least three (3) minutes. Record the bat-
tery voltage.
An example of a charging system that is functioning:
At least 0.50 volt over initial battery voltage.
Initial Battery Voltage = 12.30 v
Battery Voltage after 3 Minute Charge = 12.85 v
Difference = +0.55 v
