ENGINE ELECTRICAL -Charging System16-2
CHARGING SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATION
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 at left.
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 voltageof 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.

CLUTCH OVERHAUL -Clutch21B-5
INSPECTION
CLUTCH COVER
(1) Check the pressure plate surface for wear, cracks or
discoloration.
(2) Check the strap plate rivet for looseness. If loose, replace
the clutch cover.
CLUTCH DISC
Caution
Do not wash the clutch disc with cleaning oil.
(1) Check the facing for decomposition caused by rivet
looseness, single-side contact or seizure, and check for
the presence of grease. If any fault is found, replace
the clutch disc.
(2) Measure the rivet sinking level, and replace the clutch
disc if the limit is exceeded.
Limit value: 0.3 mm
(3) Check the torsion spring for play and breakage. If faulty,
replace the clutch disc.
(4) Set the clutch disc onto the input shaft, and check the
sliding state and for play in the rotation direction. If the
sliding state is poor, wash the disc, reassemble and then
check the state again. If there is extreme play, replace
the clutch disc or input shaft or both parts.
CLUTCH RELEASE BEARING
Caution
Grease is filled in the release bearing, so do not wash with
washing oil.
(1) Check the bearing for seizure, damage, abnormal noise
or improper rotation.
(2) Check that the pull ring of the release bearing is not
worn.
(3) If the surface where the bearing contacts the release
fork is abnormally worn, replace the bearing.
RELEASE FORK AND RELEASE FORK SHAFT
(1) If the surface where the release fork contacts the bearing
is abnormally worn, replace the release fork.
(2) Check the release fork shaft for bending and wear. If
any abnormality is found, replace the release fork shaft.

FLUID CHECK VEHICLES WITH ACD AND AYC>
1. Remove the maintenance lid located in the luggage
compartment.
2.
If the vehicle has been run, leave it for 90 min. or more
in an ordinary temperature (10_C–30_C) to allow the
accumulator internal pressure to drop.
NOTE
If the ambient temperature is 10_C or less, allow more
time to leave the vehicle to stand idle.

Set the MUT-IIto the 16-pin diagnosis connector. Turn ON
the ignition switch, perform MUT-IIactuator test (Item
No.03), forcibly drive the hydraulic unit and remove the
pressure in the accumulator.
Caution
Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK”(OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II.
NOTE
(1) In the actuator test (Item No. 03: Oil Level Check
Mode), the directional valve of the hydraulic unit is
moved to the left and right for 20 times, and then
the differential is cleared automatically. Drive can also
be cleared forcibly using the Clear key of the MUT-II.
(2) If the function has been stopped by fail-safe, the
hydraulic unit cannot be cleared forcibly.
3. Check that the fluid level in the oil reservoir is in the
range between MAX and MIN.
4. If the fluid level is lower than MIN, add the specified
fluid.
Specified fluid: Dia Queen ATF SP III
5. Reinstall the maintenance lid.

BLEEDING VEHICLES WITH ACD AND AYC>
1. Lift up the vehicle.
2. Set the MUT-IIto the 16-pin diagnosis connector.
Caution
Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK”(OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position.
