CHARGING SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATIONM1161000100522
The charging system uses the alternator output to
keep the battery charged at a constant level under
various electrical loads.
OPERATION
Rotation of the excited field coil generates AC
voltage in the stator.
This alternating current is rectified through diodes to
DC voltage having a waveform shown in the
illustration.The average output voltage fluctuates slightly with
the alternator load condition.
When the ignition switch is turned on, current flows in
the field coil and initial excitation of the field coil
occurs.
When the stator coil begins to generate power after
the engine is started, the field coil is excited by the
output current of the stator coil.
The alternator output voltage rises as the field
current increases and it falls as the field current
decreases. When the battery voltage (alternator "S"
terminal voltage) reaches a regulated voltage of
approximately 14.4 V, the field current is cut off.
When the battery voltage drops below the regulated
voltage, the voltage regulator regulates the output
voltage to a constant level by controlling the field
current.
In addition, when the field current is constant, the
alternator output voltage rises as the engine speed
increases.

DISASSEMBLY SERVICE POINTS
<<A>>FRONT BRACKET ASSEMBLY
REMOVAL
CAUTION
Do not insert the screwdriver blades too deep.
Doing so could damage the stator coil.
Insert the blades of screwdrivers between the front
bracket assembly and stator core, and pry and
separate them with the screwdrivers.
<<B>>ALTERNATOR PULLEY REMOVAL
CAUTION
Perform operation carefully not to damage the
rotor.
Clamp the rotor in a vise with the pulley facing up to
remove the pulley.
<<C>>STATOR / REGULATOR ASSEMBLY
REMOVAL
CAUTION
•Use a 180 − 250 W soldering iron, and finish
unsoldering within four seconds. Diodes will
be damaged by heat if unsoldering time is too
long.
•Avoid applying undue force to the diode
leads.
1. Unsolder the stator leads from the main diode of
the rectifier assembly when the stator is removed.
2. When removing the rectifier assembly from the
regulator assembly, undo the soldered points on
the rectifier assembly.
REASSEMBLY SERVICE POINTS
>>A<<REGULATOR ASSEMBLY
INSTALLATION
After installing the regulator assembly, insert a piece
of wire through the hole in the rear bracket while
pressing the brush to keep the brush against
movement.
NOTE: Holding the brush with the wire facilities

been installed.
INSPECTION M1161001700152
ROTOR
1. Measure the resistance between the two slip rings
of the rotor coil to check the continuity between
them.
Replace the rotor if the resistance is not within the
standard value range.
Standard value: 3 − 5 Ω
2. Check the continuity between the slip rings and
core.
3. If continuity is present, replace the rotor.
STATOR
1. Check the continuity between coil leads.
If there is no continuity, replace the stator.
2. Check the continuity between coil and core.
If there is no continuity, replace the stator.
RECTIFIER ASSEBMLY
1. Check the condition of the (+) heat sink by
checking continuity between the (+) heat sink and
each of the stator coil lead connecting terminals.
If continuity is present for both terminals, the
diode is shorted. Replace the rectifier assembly.

2. Check the condition of the (−) heat sink by
checking continuity between the (−) heat sink and
each of the stator coil lead connecting terminals.
If continuity is present in both directions, the diode
is shorted. Replace the rectifier assembly.
3. Check the condition of the diode trio by testing
continuity of each of the three diodes using a
circuit tester connected to both sides of the diode.
Connect in a polarity and then reverse the polarity
for each test.
If continuity exists or no continuity exists for both
polarities, the diode is defective. Replace the
rectifier assembly if any of the diodes is defective.
BRUSH
1. Measure the length of the protrusion of the brush.
Replace the brush if the protrusion length is
shorter than the limit.
Limit: 2 mm minimum
2. Unsolder the lead of the brush. The brush will
come out, becoming ready for removal.
3. Install a new brush by pushing it into the holder as
shown in the drawing and soldering the lead.

STARTING SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATIONM1162000100202
If the ignition switch is turned to the "START"
position, current flows in the pull-in and holding coils
provided inside magnetic switch, attracting the
plunger, When the plunger is attracted, the lever
connected to the plunger is actuated to engage the
starter clutch.
On the other hand, attracting the plunger will turn on
the magnetic switch, allowing the "B" terminal and
"M" terminal to conduct. Thus, current flows to
engage the starter motor.When the ignition switch is returned to the "ON"
position after starting the engine, the starter clutch is
disengaged from the ring gear.
An overrunning clutch is provided between the pinion
and the armature shaft, to prevent damage to the
starter.

PINION GAP ADJUSTMENT
1. Disconnect the field coil wire from the M-terminal
of the magnetic switch.
2. Connect a 12-volt battery between the S-terminal
and M-terminal.
CAUTION
This test must be performed quickly (in less than
10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning.
3. Set the switch to "ON", and the pinion will move
out.
4. Check the pinion-to-stopper clearance (pinion
gap) with a feeler gauge.
Standard value: 0.5 − 2.0 mm5. If the pinion gap is out of specification, adjust by
adding or removing gasket(s) between the
magnetic switch and front bracket.
MAGNETIC SWITCH PULL-IN TEST
1. Disconnect the field coil wire from the M-terminal
of the magnetic switch.
CAUTION
This test must be performed quickly (in less than
10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning.
2. Connect a 12-volt battery between the S-terminal
and M-terminal.
3. If the pinion moves out, the pull-in coil is good. If it
doesn't, replace the magnetic switch.

MAGNETIC SWITCH HOLD-IN TEST
1. Disconnect the field coil wire from the M-terminal
of the magnetic switch.
CAUTION
This test must be performed quickly (in less than
10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning.
2. Connect a 12-volt battery between the S-terminal
and body.
3. Manually pull out the pinion as far as the pinion
stopper position.
4. If the pinion remains out, everything is in order. If
the pinion moves in, the hold-in circuit is open.
Replace the magnetic switch.
FREE RUNNING TEST
1. Place the starter motor in a vise equipped with
soft jaws and connect a fully-charged 12-volt
battery to the starter motor as follows:
2. Connect a test ammeter (100-ampere scale) and
carbon pile rheostat in series between the battery
(+) terminal and starter motor terminal.
3. Connect a voltmeter (15-volt scale) across the
starter motor.
4. Rotate the rheostat to full-resistance position.
5. Connect the battery cable from the battery (-)
terminal to the starter motor body.
6. Adjust the rheostat until the battery voltage shown
on the voltmeter is 11 V.
7. Confirm that the maximum amperage is within the
specifications and that the starter motor turns
smoothly and freely.
Current:
<4G1> maximum 95 Amps
<4G6> maximum 90 Amps
