EXAMPLES OF ABNORMAL WAVEFORMS
NOTE
1. The size of the waveform patterns differs largely, depending on the adjustment of the variable knob
on the analyzer.
2. Identification of abnormal waveforms is easier when there is a large output current (regulator is not
operating). (Waveforms can be observed when the headlamps are illuminated.)
3. Check the conditions of the charging warning lamp (illuminated/not illuminated). Also, check the charging
system totally.

FRONT AXLE -General Information26-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
The front axle consists of front hubs, knuckles,
wheel bearings and drive shafts, and it has the
following features.
DThe wheel beearing is unit bearing integrated
with hub (Double-row angular contact ball
bearing).
DThe drive shaft incorporates B.J.-T.J. type
constant velocity joints with high transmission
efficiency and low vibration and noise.DABS rotors for detecting the wheel speeds are
press-fitted to the B.J. outer wheels in vehicles
with ABS or ACD.
NOTE
1. B.J.: Birfield Joint
2. T.J.: Tripod Joint
