Checking the capacitor
– Pull main fuse out of the fuse holder.
– Discharge the capacitor 1 by bridging the two terminals with a
screwdriver and remove.
– Connect the negative pole of a 12V battery with the negative
terminal of the capacitor. The connection between the positive pole
of the battery and the positive terminal of the capacitor (marked +)
is made with a test lamp
– When the power circuit is closed, the test lamp must begin to light
up. As capacitor charging increases, the brightness of the test lamp
must decrease.
– The test lamp must go out after 0,5-2 seconds (depending on the
lamp capacity).
– If the test lamp does not go out or does not light up at all, the
capacitor is faulty.
