Generator and Regulator - Generator
Description and Operation
Generator - General View
Features
Manufacturer - Denso Type - L3B-HE Drive Ratio - 3.04:1 Output - 120 Amps at 5000 rpm (generator speed) at 25° C
The generator is fitted at the front right hand side of the engine, to a sepa rate mounting bracket, which in turn is bolted to
the cylinder block. Two bolts secure th e generator to the mounting bracket; one is reached from above and one from below
the vehicle.
The voltage regulator is integral with th e generator body. Battery charging capabi lity has been optimised for charging a
battery which is located remotely, in the luggage compartment. The design of the generator and regulator has been finely
matched, to generate charging current with very low ripple. This provides the best electrical refinement to the system.
The generator is driven by a single, multi-ribbed belt which also drives all other front-e nd accessories; except for the
supercharger (where fitted).
No special service tools are required to remove the generator from the vehicle.

Diagnosis and Testing
Refer to PDU User Guide
Refer to the PDU User Manual for detailed instructions on testing the charging circuit.
When diagnosing the charging ci rcuit, the PDU indicates only whether the generator is charging or not charging. The reason
for this is that the PDU cannot handle the potential full charging current and that the voltage control circuits are located
within the generator assembly, making th em inaccessible by the PDU directly.
It is possible that the battery has failed. In this case, the voltage output at the generator could be correct, but the voltage
at the battery terminals, and therefore the rest of the vehicl e system, will be adversely affected by the faulty battery.
The same result is given by the PDU if the battery is faulty (generator not faulty), wiring fault (damaged or severe corrosion
at the terminals) or if th e generator is at fault.
Inspection and Verification
The following manual tests help to pinpoint which component is at fault.
Testing the Battery Circuit
Using the Vehicle Battery

Remove the battery cover.
Ensure that all electrical loads are swit ched OFF and that the engine is cool.
Start the engine and allow to IDLE.
Whilst the engine is idling, disconnect the battery negative terminal and, using a digital multimeter (DMM), measure the
voltage between the terminal on the batter y negative cable and the battery positive terminal. If the generator is working,
the measured voltage should be within the range 13V to 15V.
This indicates the system voltage without the battery in circuit. If the generator is inoperative, the engine will stall when t he
ground lead is disconnected.
Repeat the test, using the ground bolt, as indicated (shown dotted on the illustration). There should be hardly any

detectable difference in the voltage reading (due to minimal current flow); if there is a detectable difference, clean the cable terminal and the adjacent area of the body.
When the voltage has been measured, STOP THE ENGINE.
Reconnect the battery or fit a new battery if it was established that the battery was at fault (Refer to 414-01).
If the cooling fans operate during the above test, the large demand of current will overload the generator and cause the
engine to stall.
If the battery is in a low state of charge the voltage will rise momentarily when the battery is disconnected. However, the
maximum that the voltage can increase to with this new gene rator is 25V and then only for a maximum time of 200 mS.
Using a Substitute Battery
A substitute battery may be fitted for the tests. This batter y must be a known good example and must have been off-charge for at least twelve hours, with a term inal voltage of approximately 12.8V.
Ensure that all electrical loads are swit ched OFF and that the engine is cool.
Start the engine and allow to IDLE.
Measure the voltage across the battery term inals. It should have dropped a little due to the large start current and then
risen to a value of between 13V and 15V.
If the above test (whichever one used) indicates that the generator is not working then the connections on the rear face of
the generator should be checked. If there is a faulty connection, then the ge nerator will not perform correctly no matter
how fast it is driven.

Description and Operation
The electrically operated antenna operates automatically when the Ignition switch is set to position 1 or 2, and the radio
cassette player is switched on , regardless of the status of the tape or CD mode switch.
The antenna motor is protected by a 10A fuse, F9, located in the trunk fuse-box.

Direction indicator and side marker lamps
Each front direction indicator and side marker lamp is retained in the bumper cover by a lug at one end and a spring clip at
the other end. The side marker lamps are not electrically connected for certain markets.
The side repeater lamps are secured by sp ring clips on the lower edge of the lamp unit. In certain markets Jaguar leaper
badges are substituted for side repeater lamps.
Fog lamps
The fog lamps are located in recesses in the front bump er and secured by three screws. The la mps which are not
interchangeable left to right, are accessed from the rear of the bumper.
Operation
All lamps are controlled by the BPM which provides an appropriate output in response to an input received when a selected
switch is operated.
All lamps receive an input direct from th e BPM with the exception of the main be am, dip beam and front fog lamps which
receive an input from the BPM vi a the respective relays and fuses; refer to section 418-01.
Fault analysis must be undertaken using the PDU. Refer to Diagnosis and Testing.

Diagnosis and Testing
Tests Using the Portable Diagnostic Unit
Refer to PDU User Guide
The complexity of the electronics involved with the various Electronic Control Modules and the multiplexed communication
networks, preclude the use of workshop general electrical test equipment. Therefore, reference should be made to the PDU
User Guide for detailed inst ructions on testing the exterior lamps and circuits.
The PDU systematically tests and analyses the lamp assemblies, the bulbs and the electrical connections to them. It should
be noted that the lamps are not wired direct ly to the switches. Actuation of a switch provides an input signal to the Body
Processor which interpre ts the signal as a request to switch output from the Bo dy Processor, either directly or indirectly to a
specific lamp.
Where a fault involving a lamp is indicated by the PDU, befo re replacing the component, some basic diagnostic methods
may be necessary to confirm that connections are good and that wiring is not damaged.
