CHARGING SYSTEM
SHORT CIRCUIT TEST
Disconnect the ground wire from the battery
and connect an ammeter across the battery
negative (-) terminal and the ground wire.
Turn the ignition switch OFF and check for
short circuit.
Connect the electric tester positive (+)
terminal to ground wire and the tester
negative (-) terminal to the battery
negative (-) terminal.
If any abnormality is found, check the ignition
switch and wire harness for short circuit .
CURRENT TEST
This inspection must be performed with an
electric tester when the battery is fully
charged.
Warm up the engine for inspection.
Connect the electric tester across the battery
terminals. Disconnect the red wire from the
fuse terminal and connect an ammeter
between the red wire lead and the fuse
terminal as shown.
Attach a tachometer to the engine.
Start the engine and gradually increase the
engine speed to measure the limit voltage and Headlight Wire Coupler
current.
Limit Voltage/Current: 13.5 15.5V/0.5A
max. (5000rpm
max.)
If the limit voltage is not within the specified
range, check the regulator/rectifier. ( 14)
LIGHTING SYSTEM LIMIT VOLTAGE
INSPECTION
Remove the headlight cover. ( 2)
Measure the voltage with the electric
tester in the AC range.
Limit Voltage: 12 14V/5000rpm
If the limit voltage is not within the specified
range, check the regulator/rectifier. ( 14)
