4) Measure the voltage between the terminals using the multi-circuit tester as indicated in the following table. If the
voltage is not within the specified value, replace the regulator/rectifier with a new one. Refer to "Regulator /
Rectifier Construction (Page 1J-8)".
NOTE
If the tester reads 1.4 V and below when the tester probes are not connected, replace its battery.
