OUTPUT CURRENT TEST
This test judges whether or not the alternator gives an output
current that is equivalent to the nominal output.
Preparation
(1) Prior to the test, check the following items and correct as
necessary.
(a) Check the battery installed in the vehicle to ensure that it
is in sound state*. The battery checking method is de-
scribed in “BATTERY”.
NOTE
*The battery that is used to test the output current should
be one that has been rather discharged. With a fully
charged battery, the test may not be conducted correctly
due to an insufficient load.
(b) Check tension of the alternator drive belt. The belt tension
check method is described in “GROUP 7 COOLING -
Service Adjustment Procedures”.
(2) Turn off the ignition switch.
(3) Disconnect the battery ground cable.
(4) Disconnect the alternator output wire from the alternator “B”
terminal.
(5) Connect a DC ammeter (0 to 100 A) in series between the “B”
terminal and the disconnected output wire. Connect the (+)
lead of the ammeter to the “B” terminal and connect the (-)
lead wire to the disconnected output wire.
NOTE
Tighten each connection by bolt and nut securely as a heavy
current will flow. Do not relay on clips.
(6) Connect a voltmeter (0 to 20 V) between the “B” terminal and
ground. Connect the (+) lead wire to the alternator “B” ter-
minal and (-) lead wire to a sound ground.
(7) Set the engine tachometer and connect the battery ground
cable.
(8) Leave the engine hood open.
Test
(1) Check to see that the voltmeter reads the same value as the
battery voltage.
If the voltmeter reads 0 V, an open circuit in the wire between
the alternator “B” terminal and battery (-) terminal, a blown
fusible link or poor grounding is suspected.
(2) Turn on the headlight switch and start the engine.
(3) Set the headlight at high beam and the heater blower switch
at HIGH, quickly increase the engine speed to 2500 rpm and
read the maximum output current value indicated by the am-
meter.
NOTE
After the engine start up, the charging current quickly drops.
therefore, above operation must be done quickly to read max-
imum current value correctly.

(5) Disconnect the alternator output wire from the alternator “B”
terminal.
(6) Connect a DC ammeter (0 to 100 A) in series between the “B”
terminal and the disconnected output wire. Connect the (+I
lead of the ammeter to the “B” terminal and connect the (-1
lead wire to the disconnected output wire.
(7) Set the engine tachometer and connect the battery ground
cable.
Test
(1) Turn on the ignition switch and-check that the voltmeter indi-
cates the following value.
Voltage : Battery voltage
If it reads 0 V, there is an open circuit in the wire between the
alternator “S” terminal and the battery (+) or the fusible link
is blown.
(2) Start the engine. Keep all lights and accessories off.
(3) Run the engine at a speed of about 2500 rpm and read the
voltmeter when the alternator output current drops to 10 A or
less.
Result
(1) If the voltmeter reading agrees with the value listed in the
regulating voltage table below, the voltage regulator is func-
tioning correctly. If the reading is other than the standard
value, the voltage regulator or the alternator is faulty.

Transmission: N (Neutral)
1. Connect tachometer and timing light.
2. Start eng.ine and run at curb idle speed.

sensor connector before stopping engine. Then restart
engine and run it at curb idle speed.
4. Check basic ignition timing and adjust if necessary.
Basic ignition timing: 7” + 2”BTDC 5. To adjust ignition timing, loosen distributor mounting nut
and turn distributor housing.
6. After adjustment, securely tighten mounting nut.
7. Reconnect pressure sensor connector disconnected in
Step 3. Then run engine at curb idle speed to make sure
that actual ignition timing is obtained.

CHECKING IGNITION SYSTEM NOBDIDB
CHECKING CENTRIFUGAL ADVANCE EQUIPMENT 1.
Set the tachometer and timing light.
2. Start the engine and allow it to idle.
3. Pull out vacuum hose from vacuum controller.
4. Check the advance while slowly raising RPM. If the advance is
smooth when accompanying the increasing RPM, this is
normal.
Symptom Assumed causes
Excessive advance
Weakness of the governor spring
Sudden advance rise
Broken spring
Insufficient advance or large
Impaired movement of the gover-
hysteresis
nor weight or cam.
5. If the malfunction indicators above are confirmed, dismantle
and check the distributor.
6. After checking, let the engine idle and then turn the ignition
switch to OFF.
7. Remove the tachometer and timing light.‘.

Caution
1 When using a speedometer tester to inspect the
speedometer, be sure to chock the non-drive wheels
to prevent the vehicle from moving. Also be sure to
set the transfer shift lever to “2H”.
2 If there is a special regulation for speedometer
indication error in the area where the ‘vehicle is
operated, be sure to meet the requirement of the
regulation.
TACHOMETER INSPECTION NOBHIBA
Connect a tach-dwell meter, and then compare the meter
readings at various engine speeds with the values indicated on
the tachometer.
Standard value:
1,000 r/min
3,000 r/min
5,000 r/min f 100 r/min
2150 r/min
&250 r/min
Tgch-dwell meter Caution
The tachometer is the negative-ground type, and therefore
should not be connected in reverse polarity to the battery.
If the tachometer is connected in reverse polarity, the
transistors and diodes will be damaged.
