POWERDRIVE 2 CHARGER (EXTERNAL)
Test Procedure 3 – AC Power and Continuity Test of AC Circuit, Continued:
6. If the circuit is not complete, check the wiring of the AC cord, transformer primary coil wires, and internal
AC circuit breaker (Figure 5-16, Page 5-19).
7. If the charger is wired correctly, check the continuity of the AC cord, transformer primary coil, and the
internal AC circuit breaker individually. See Test Procedure 8 – Continuity on page 5-20.
8. When troubleshooting and repairs are complete, properly connect the relay wiring. See following
WARNING.

WARNING
• The relay wiring must be properly connected prior to placing the charger back into normal
service. Failure to properly connect the relay wiring could result in property damage, severe
personal injury, or death.
TEST PROCEDURE 4 – RECTIFIER
See General Warning, Section 1, Page 1-1. See additional WARNING on page 5-1.
The rectifier converts the AC voltage from the transformer secondary coil to DC voltage. This conversion is
necessary since the batteries require DC voltage for charging. A failed or improperly wired rectifier could
result in little or no battery charging current or a tripped AC circuit breaker.
1. Disconnect AC cord from the wall outlet and DC plug from the vehicle receptacle.
2. Remove the charger cover.
3. Disconnect all four wires from the rectifier (Figure 5-12, Page 5-16).
