H-63. ALTERNATOR CHARGING SYSTEM

Most vehicles have, as standard equipment, a 35-

amp.,
12-volt, negative ground alternator and a
transistorized
voltage
regulator.
The
alternator charging circuit consists of the
battery, alternator,
voltage
regulator, ignition
switch,
and charge indicator light.

An
alternator differs from a conventional DC
shunt generator in that the armature is stationary,

and
is called the stator, while the field rotates,
and
is called the rotor.
With
the alternator con­
struction,
the higher current values involved in
the stator may be conducted to the external circuit through fixed leads and connections, rather than
through a rotating commutator and brushes, as in the DC generator.

The
alternator employs a three-phase stator
winding. The rotor consists of a field coil encased
between
six poled interleaved sections, producing

a
twelve
pole
magnetic field with alternator north

and
south poles. By rotating the rotor inside the stator, an alternating current is induced in the stator windings.
This
alternating current is
changed to direct current by
diodes
and conducted
to the output terminal of the alternator.
Six
silicon
diode
rectifiers act as electrical one-way valves.
Three
of the
diodes
have negative polarity

and
are grounded. The other three
diodes
have
positive polarity and connected to the output
terminal.
In all alternators discussed in this

manual,
the
diodes
are pressed into heat sinks.

There
are two heat sinks, one positive and the
other negative.

Since
the
diodes
have a high resistance to the
flow of
current
in one direction and a low resistance
in
the
opposite
direction, they are connected in a
manner
which allows current to flow from the
alternator to the battery in the low resistance
direction.
The high resistance in the
opposite

direction prevents the flow of current from the
battery to the alternator. Because of this feature,
no
circuit
breaker
is
required
between
the alternator
and
the battery.
Residual
magnetism in the rotor field
poles
is
negligible. Therefore the starting field current must be supplied by the battery. It is connected
to the field winding through the ignition switch

and
charge indicator lamp.
As
in the DC shunt generator, the alternator
voltage
is regulated by varying the field current.
In
these
alternator systems, this is accomplished
electronically in the transistorized
voltage
reg­
ulator.
No current regulator is required since all
alternators have self-limiting current character­
istics.

The
entire DC output of the alternator has to pass
through the isolation diode. The isolation
diode
is
not essential for rectification. Its purpose is threefold.
It
provides automatic solid
state
switch for
illumi­

nating the alternator charge
-
discharge indicator
light when the alternator is not charging properly.
It
automatically connects the
voltage
regulator to
the alternator and battery when the alternator is
operating.
It
eliminates electrical leakage across the alternator

diodes
so that leakage is negligible when the vehicle
is not in use.
The
isolation
diode
is mounted in a separate alumi­

num
heat sink. The 35-amp. alternator has a single
silicon diode. The alternator is designed to supply the electrical demands of the battery and the
accessory circuits through a wide range of
engine

speeds. The alternator is lighter and more compact

than
a conventional DC shunt generator of com­

parable
electrical size.

The
principal
components of the alternator are
the stator, the rotor, the slip ring end head, the

drive
end head, the
diode
rectifiers, and the isolation diode.

a.
The stator consists of a laminated iron core on

which
the three-phase windings are wound in
slots
around
the inside circumference. A
pair
of leads
are
connected to each of the three points of the
winding. One of each
pair
of leads connects to a
negative
diode
rectifier and one to a positive
diode
rectifier.

b.
The rotor consists of a single field coil encased

between
two six-fingered, interleaved iron sections assembled to the shaft. The two ends of the field
coil
are connected to two slip rings which are in­
sulated from each other and from the shaft.
c. The slip ring end head supports the rectifier heat sinks; a prelubricated sealed
ball
bearing, in

which
the rotor shaft rotates; and the brush holders
and
brushes.

d.
The drive end head supports a prelubricated
sealed
ball
bearing in which the drive end of the rotor shaft rotates.
e. The
diode
rectifiers are pressed in the rectifier brackets or heat sinks and are connected to the
stator leads.
f. The isolation
diode
is pressed in the aluminum heat sink mounted to the
rear
of the alternator. The
complete assembly is covered with a red insulating coating.

For
repairing the alternator, many of its major components are furnished as complete assemblies

including:
complete brush assembly which requires 194

SERIES SERVICE
MANUAL

H
no soldering or unsoldering of leads; two complete

rectifying
diode assemblies
which
eliminate the need
for removing and replacing individual diodes; a
corpplete isolation diode assembly; and a rotor
assembly complete with shaft,
pole
pieces, field

coil,
and slip rings.

The
transistorized
voltage
regulator is an electronic
switching device. It
senses
the
voltage
appearing
at the auxiliary terminal of the alternator and
supplies the necessary field current for maintaining
the system
voltage
at the output terminal. The
output current is determined by the battery electri­
cal
load; such as headlights, heater, etc.

The
transistorized
voltage
regulator is a sealed

unit,
has no adjustments, and must be replaced
as a complete unit.

H-64. ALTERNATOR
PRECAUTIONS

The
following precautions must be observed to
prevent damage to the alternator and regulator.

a.
Never reverse battery connections. Always

check
the battery polarity with a voltmeter before

any
connections are made to be sure that all con­
nections correspond to the battery ground polarity of the vehicle.

b.
Booster batteries for starting must be properly
connected. Make sure that the negative cable of
the booster battery is connected to the negative

terminal
of the battery in the vehicle. The positive
cable of the booster battery should be connected
to the positive terminal of the battery in the
vehicle.

c.
Disconnect the battery cables before using a fast charger.

d.
Never use a fast charger as a booster for

starting
the vehicle.

e.
Never disconnect the
voltage
regulator while
the
engine
is running.

f.
Do not ground the alternator output terminal.
g.
Do not operate the alternator on an open
circuit
with
the field energized.

h.
Do not attempt to polarize an alternator.

These
precautions are stated here as an aid to

service
personnel. They are also restated at appro­

priate
places in the
text
of this section of the
manual.

H-65. ALTERNATOR
CHARGING
SYSTEM SERVICE
Important:
All alternator
tests
for the 35, 40 and
55 amp alternator are the same, however, there is a
difference
between
the location of the various ter­

minals
and field current specifications. The field

current
of the 35 amp alternator should be 1.7 to 2.3 amps, 40 and 55 amp alternators should be 1.8
to 2.4 amps, with
full
battery
voltage
applied to
the filed coil. Disassembly and assembly procedures

are
the same for all three alternators.
Terminal
locations and wire harness color
codes
for the 35,
40 and 55 amp alternator are shown in Fig. H-38.

H-66.
Service Diagnosis

In
diagnosing a suspected malfunction of the

alternator
charging system, consideration must
be given to the complete electrical power plant of the vehicle; including the alternator, regulator,
ignition switch, charge indicator lamp, battery,

and
all associated wiring. If it is suspected that the

alternator
is not fully charging the battery and

fulfilling
the electrical requirements of the electrical
system, several checks should be made before

checking
the alternator itself:

Note:
Whenever service is required in connection

with
an alternator problem, the first
step
should be to verify that the wiring harness hook-up is correct
as indicated in Fig. H-38.

a.
Test the condition of the battery and
state
of
charge
(Par. H-2).
If the battery is not fully charged
and
in
good
condition, use a replacement battery
for making alternator system
tests.

Caution:
Make certain that the negative battery

post
is connected to ground when making the
battery installation. Serious damage to the alter­

nator
can result if battery polarity is reversed.

b.
Check
fan belt for proper tension (Par.
C-27).

Caution:
To increase belt tension, apply pressure
to alternator front housing only as permanent damage can result if pressure is applied to
rear

housing.

H-67.
Alternator In Vehicle Tests

The
following
tests
are made with the alternator

in
the vehicle with output and regulator connec­
tions maintained to the alternator except as noted

in
Fig. H-27 and H-28. The field plug and
voltage
regulator are disconnected for
these
tests.
The

tests
are given in proper order and detail in the
following paragraphs.

a.
Isolation Diode Test: To determine if the isola­
tion diode is open or shorted, refer to Par. H-69.

b.
Alternator Output Test: To isolate the trouble
to the alternator or regulator, refer to Par. H-70.

c.
Alternator

Test:
To deter­
mine the condition of the
brush,
refer to
Par.
H-75.

e.
Rotor In-Vehicle Test: To determine whether
the rotor coil is open or shorted, refer to
Par.
H-73.
f. Any further
tests
must be conducted with the

alternator
removed and disassembled. When this
is done, the condition of the rotor, the rectifying

and
isolation diodes, and the stator can be further
tested.

A

be replaced. If voltage
does
not rise at auxiliary

terminal,
defect is in alternator stator or rectifier diodes, if field circuit checked out properly. For
defects
in stator or diodes, remove alternator from vehicle.

If
rated current output is obtained with at least 13
volts but less than 15 volts at the output terminal,
the alternator is functioning properly.

Caution:
Do not exceed rated current output of
alternator
by increasing load on alternator.

If
rated
current
output cannot be obtained, proceed

with
the
tests
and checks given in the following
paragraphs
and isolate the cause.
Note: The system is designed to produce slightly
more output at low operating temperatures and less
at higher temperatures to accommodate the
varying
demands of electrical power normally consumed at

these
temperatures.

H-71.
Regulator Test

The
regulator should be checked with an alternator
that is functioning properly. If the alternator is questionable, perform the Alternator Output Test
(Par
H-70) which excludes the regulator from the

charging
system and, therefore,
tests
the condition
of the alternator alone. 196

Removal
and
Installation
of

Voltage Regulator

The
transistorized
voltage
regulator is a sealed unit.
It
cannot be disassembled or adjusted. If found to
be defective in any way, it must be replaced as
a
unit.

The
transistorized
voltage
regulator is mounted on
the fender dust shield by three mounting screws.

Wiring
connections to the charging circuit are made through a three-prong connector.

To
remove the regulator, disconnect the three
-
prong connector and remove the three mounting

screws.
Installation of the regulator is the reverse
of the removal. (Refer to Fig. H-26.)

ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM
H-124. Testing Indicators and Gauges

Two
gauges
(fuel and temperature) and two in­ dicators (oil pressure and battery charge) that are
located in the instrument cluster are electrically operated.

The
fuel
gauge
is connected by a single wire to a
float-and-slide-rheostat sending unit in the fuel
tank.

The
temperature
gauge
is connected by a single

wire
to a resistance-type sending unit mounted on the engine.

The
battery charge indicator operates when there
is a difference in potential
between
the generator
and
the battery
.The
battery charge indicator lights
when the generator is not charging the battery. The
indicator
light
goes
out when the generator
begins

to charge the battery.

The
oil pressure indicator is connected by a single

wire
to a diaphragm switch located on the engine.
When
engine
oil pressure is low or zero and the
ignition switch is on, the oil pressure indicator
will

light. When
engine
speed is increased slightly above idle speed, raising the oil pressure to approximately 6 psi. [0,2 kg-cm2], the diaphragm switch
will
open the circuit and the indicator light
will
go out.

A
voltage
regulator maintains a constant
voltage
to the
gauges
in normal operation. On early vehicles,
this
voltage
regulator was mounted on the
rear
of
the instrument cluster. On current vehicles, the
voltage
regulator is integral with the fuel
gauge.

Should
trouble
develop
in the
gauges,
first check the regulator (fuel
gauge
on current production vehicle). If the
voltage
to the regulator is below 10 volts system low
gauge
readings
will
result.
Voltage in
excess
of 16 volts
will
not affect
gauge

readings but may result in premature wear of the
regulator contacts. If the
voltage
to the regulator is

within
the above limits, check the electrical con­ nections to the regulator (or fuel gauge), especially
the ground connection. If the readings of all the
gauges
is too high, or they all read too low, replace
the regulator (or fuel gauge).

If
the temperature
gauge
or heat indicator in the
instrument cluster have failed, the cause may
originate from the jumper bar shorting out against the instrument case.
Check
the jumper bar
between

the temperature
gauge
and heat indicator at the

rear
of the instrument case. On later production vehicles, the jumper bar is covered with an in­
sulating
sleeve
to protect it from shorting out
against the instrument case. If the jumper bar

does
not have this
sleeve,
either install one or

wrap
the bar with plastic electrical tape to
half

an
inch [12,7 mm.] from each end. When installing the jumper bar, be sure the curved
segment
is
closest to the fuel
gauge.

Should
only one of the two
gauges
register incor­
rectly,
check the lead wire from the
gauge
to the
sending unit for shorts or open connections. Next disconnect the
gauge
from the sending unit, and
connect the
gauge
to a new fuel tank sending unit

which
has been grounded to the vehicle.
If
the
gauge
registers incorrectly when operating the new unit,
replace the
gauge;
if correctly, replace the sending

unit.

Should
a new fuel tank unit not be available for testing, use a 12-volt
test
light in its place. When
the
gauge
is operating correctly, the pointer
will

move
approximately three-quarters across the
dial.

On
some
vehicles, the temperature
gauge
may
register on or
close
to the H (hot)
mark
when
coolant temperature is
190°F.
to
200°F.
[88°C.
a

93°C.].
In such cases, a 25-ohm,
1-watt
resistor
may be installed on the temperature
gauge
which

will
place the pointer just beyond the center
mark
at a coolant temperature of
190°F.
to
200°F.
Install

the resistor
between
the two terminals on the back
of the
gauge.
Insulate the
exposed
leads of the resistor with electrical tape.

If
the oil pressure indicator
does
not indicate cor­

rectly,
first check the light bulb. Next check all
connections and lead wires. If, after all possible

defects
are corrected, the indicator light
does
not go on and off properly, then the diaphragm type
switch in the cylinder block should be replaced.

H-12S.
LIGHTING SYSTEM The
wiring of the lighting systems is shown in
the wiring diagrams, which indicate the various units in relation to their positions in the vehicle.
The
wires in the various circuits are of different
colors or are marked by tracers to aid when check­
ing individual circuits.

The
lighting circuits of all models are protected by

an
overload circuit breaker mounted on the back of the main light switch and no replaceable fuse is
required.

The
upper and lower headlight beams are con­
trolled by a
foot
switch located on the toe board
to the left of the clutch pedal.
H-126.
Main
Light
Switch

This
switch is a dual functioning unit having two

push-pull
positions and a rotary action. When
pulled out to the first position, the front parking
and
tail
lights are turned on. When pulled all the
way out to the second position, the headlights and
tail
lights are turned on. Rotating the switch to
the right dims the instrument cluster lighting.

The
switch may be removed from the instrument
panel by first loosening the set screw in the control
knob and removing the knob. The retaining nut may then be removed and the switch removed
through the
rear
of the instrument panel.
