1.PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
Perform the preliminary inspection. Refer to CHG-20, "
Inspection Procedure".
>> GO TO 2.
2.STOP POWER GENERATION VOLTAGE VARIABLE CONTROL SYSTEM
Stop the operation of the power generation voltage variable control in either of the following procedures.
• After selecting “ENGINE” of “SELECT SYSTEM” using CONSULT-III, set the DUTY value of “ALTERNATOR
DUTY” to 0 % by selecting “ALTERNATOR DUTY” of “Active Test”. Continue “Active Test” until the end of
inspection. (When the DUTY value is 0 or 100 %, the normal power generation is performed according to the
characteristic of the IC regulator of the alternator.)
 Turn the ignition switch OFF, and disconnect the battery current sensor connector. [However, DTC (P1550 -

POWER GENERATION VOLTAGE VARIABLE CONTROL SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000003860517
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000003860518
By performing the power generation voltage variable control, the engine load due to the power generation of
the alternator is reduced and fuel consumption is decreased.
NOTE:
When any malfunction is detected in the power generation voltage variable control system, the power genera-
tion is performed according to the characteristic of the IC voltage regulator of the alternator.

POWER GENERATION VOLTAGE VARIABLE CONTROL SYSTEM
Component Description
INFOID:0000000003860520
Component part Description
Battery current sensorBattery current sensor is installed to the battery cable at the neg-
ative terminal, and it detects the charging/discharging current of
the battery and sends the voltage signal to ECM according to the
current value.
ECMBattery current sensor detects the charging/discharging current of
the battery. ECM judges the battery condition based on this signal.
ECM judges whether to perform the power generation voltage
variable control according to the battery condition.
When performing the power generation voltage variable control,
ECM calculates the target power generation voltage according to
the battery condition and sends the calculated value as the power
generation command value to IPDM E/R.
IPDM E/RIPDM E/R converts the received power generation command val-
ue into the power generation command signal (PWM signal) and
sends it to the IC voltage regulator.
Alternator (IC voltage regulator)IC voltage regulator controls the power generation voltage by the
target power generation voltage based on the received power gen-
eration command signal.
When there is no power generation command signal, the alterna-
tor performs the normal power generation according to the char-
acteristic of the IC voltage regulator.
