ALTERNATOR

The
alternator
is
driven

by
the
fan
belt
and
has
an
advant

age
over
a

dynamo
in
that
it

provides
current
at

low

engine

speeds
thereby
avoiding
battery
drain
Maintenance
is
not

normally
required
but
the
tension
of
the
fan
belt
should
be

checked
and

adjusted
if

necessary
as

described
in
the

section

Inspection

Use
an

ohmmeter
as

shown

to
test

the

Apply
the
tester
between
the

slip
rings

that

the
resistance
is

approximately
4

ohms
at

normal
ambient

temperature
Check
the

conductivity
between

slip
ring
and
rotor

core
as
shown
in

Fig

22
if

conductivity
exists
the
field
coil

or

slip
ring
must
be

earthing
and
the
rotor

assembly
should
be

renewed

Cbeck
the

that
there
is

conductivity

retween
the
individual
stator

coil
terminals
as
shown
in

If
there
is
no

conductivity
between

If
there
is

conductivity
between

any
wire
