3. If the voltage is less than +11.0 V dc, the battery pack has been discharged.
Note: Recharging will take at least 3 hours, even if the indicator does not turn on.
If the voltage is still less than +11.0 V dc after recharging, replace the battery.
4. If the voltage is more than +11.0 V dc, measure the resistance between battery terminals 5 and 7.
The resistance must be 4 to 30 K Ω. If the resistance is not correct, replace the battery pack. If the
resistance is correct, replace the system board.
