11.Increase the engine speed to 2,500 r/min.
12.Read the value displayed on the voltmeter when
the current output by the alternator becomes 10 A
or less.
13.If the voltage reading conforms to the value in the
voltage regulation table, then the voltage regulator
is operating normally.
If the voltage is outside the standard value, there
is a malfunction of the voltage regulator or the
alternator (Refer to the following table).14.After the test, lower the engine speed to idle.
15.Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF)
position.
16.Disconnect the engine tachometer or diagnostic
tool .
17.Disconnect the negative battery cable.
18.Disconnect the ammeter and voltmeter.
19.Connect the negative battery cable.
20.Run the engine for 10 minutes at an idle.

NOTE: The voltage waveform of the alternator "B" terminal can
undulate as shown at left. This waveform is produced when the
regulator operates according to fluctuations in the alternator
load (current), and is normal for the alternator.
If the ripple height is abnormally high (approximately 2 V or
more during idling), the wires between the alternator "B" termi-
nal and the battery have broken due to fuse blowing, etc. The
alternator is usually operating properly.
.
ABNORMAL WAVEFORMS EXAMPLES
NOTE: The size of the waveform patterns can differ greatly,
depending on the adjustment of the variable knob on the oscil-
loscope.
NOTE: Identification of abnormal waveforms is easier when
there is a large output current (regulator is not operating).
(Waveforms can be observed when the headlights are illumi-
nated.)
NOTE: Check the conditions of the alternator malfunction light
(illuminated/not illuminated) also, and carry out a total check.

Check the starter (magnetic switch).
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The starting system troubleshooting guide is shown in the fol-
lowing steps.
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories con-
tain lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS AFTER
HANDLING.
STEP 1.
Q: Is the battery in good condition? (Refer to GROUP 54A,
Chassis Electrical
Battery On-vehicle Service
Battery Check P.54A-5.)
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Charge or replace the battery.
STEP 2.

tor.
Using a jumper wire, apply battery positive voltage to the
starter motor S (solenoid) terminal.
Check the engine condition.
OK: Turns normally
Q: Dose the starter motor operate normally?
YES :
Check the ignition switch (Refer to GROUP 54A,
Chassis Electrical
Ignition Switch Ignition
Switch
Inspection P.54A-44.)
Check the transmission range switch. (Refer to
GROUP 23A, Automatic Transaxle
On-vehicle
Service
Essential Service Transmission Range
Switch Check P.23A-294.)
Check the wire between the battery and starter
motor S (solenoid) terminal.
NO : Go to Step 3.

<> STARTER ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
Remove the starter assembly from under the vehicle.

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.
This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10 sec-
onds) 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 mm (0.02 0.07 inch)
5. 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.
This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10 sec-
onds) 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.
This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10 sec-
onds) 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 operating properly. 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 positive 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 negative battery terminal
to the starter motor body.
6. Adjust the rheostat until the battery positive 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: maximum 95 Amps
.
MAGNETIC SWITCH RETURN TEST
1. Disconnect the field coil wire from the M-terminal of the
magnetic switch.
This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10 sec-
onds) to prevent the coil from burning.
2. Connect a 12-volt battery between the M-terminal and body.
Be careful not to get your fingers caught when pulling
out the pinion.
3. Pull the pinion out and release. If the pinion quickly returns
to its original position, everything is operating properly. If it
doesn't, replace the magnetic switch.
