. ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
Warm up the engine.
Remove the floor mat and battery cover.
Stop the engine and open the fuse box.
Disconnect the wire lead from the fuse terminal.
Connect an ammeter between the wire lead
and fuse terminal as shown.
Connect the battery positive (+) terminal to the
voltmeter positive (+) probe and battery
negative (-) terminal to the voltmeter negative
(-) probe.
Start the engine, gradually increase engine
speed to test the output:

Charging Limit Voltage: 14.5±0.5V/8000rpm
If the limit voltage is not within the specified
range, check the regulator/ rectifier.
A.C. GENERATOR (CHARGING
COIL) INSPECTION
Remove the met-in box. ( ð 12-4)
Disconnect the A.C. generator connector.
Measure the resistances between the charging
coil terminals (white–green) and lighting coil
terminals (yellow–green).
Resistances:
Charging coil white–green
Lighting coil
yellow–green 0.3 1.0Ω
Refer to 7-3 for A.C. generator removal.
