To check the battery charging system for faults, use the DDS diagnosis instrument and follow the instructions given in the
paragraph,
"Checking the battery charging
The absolute value of voltage measured across the terminals of two of the three yellow cables (the measured value will be
the same whichever combination of cable is used) must be within the range indicated in the table below.
(Ambient temperature: 20 °C)
Important
Before testing, disconnect the alternator wiring from the electric system when the ignition key is set to OFF.

Values significantly lower than those indicated above can be due to:
- partially demagnetised rotor;
- short-circuited windings.
In the above cases the whole alternator assembly (rotor and stator) should be renewed.
If checks have a favourable outcome, reconnect the alternator to the regulator with ignition key on OFF. Make sure that
no cables are damaged or disconnected.
Removal of the alternator
Disconnect the cables of the generator-side electric system (refer to the paragraph
1).
