CHARGING SYSTEM
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERATOR
CHARGING CIRCUIT
The charging system is the IC integral regulator
charging system and its main components are
connected as shown in Figure.
The regulator is a solid state type and it is mounted
along with the brush holder assembly inside the
generator installed on the rear end cover.The generator does not require particular maintenance
such as voltage adjustment. The rectifier connected to
the stator coil has nine diodes to transform A.C. voltage
into D.C. voltage. This D.C. voltage is connected to the
output terminal of generator.

DIAGNOSIS
GENERAL ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
The operating condition of the charging system is
indicated by the charge warning lamp. The warning
lamp comes on when the starter swtich is turned to
“ON” position. The charging system operates normallyif the lamp goes off when the engine starts. If the
warning lamp shows abnormality or if undercharged or
overcharged battery condition is suspected, perform
diagnosis by checking the charging system as follows:

Rectifier Assembly
1. Measure the resistance between each diode
terminal and aluminum diode fin in forward and
reverse directions with the connection of the tester
leads switched. The diodes are normal if resistance
is nearly zero ohms in one direction and is infinitely
high in the other direction.
2. If a diode has no resistance or equal resistance in
both directions, it is defective and should be
replaced together with the holder.
IC Regulator Assembly
Connect a variable resistor, two 12V batteries, a fixed
resistor, and a voltmeter to the IC regulator as shown in
illustration.
a. Measuring equipment specifications
1. Fixed resistor (R1) : 10 Ohms / 3W
2. Variable resistor (Rv) : 0 – 300 Ohms / 12W
3. Batteries (BAT1, BAT2) : 12V (2 Batteries)
4. DC voltmeter : 0 – 50V / 0.5 steps (4 Check points)
b. Measuring procedure
1. Measure the voltage “V1” across the first battery
(BAT1). If the reading is between 10 and 13 volts,
the battery is normal.
2. Measure the voltage “V3” across both the batteries
(BAT1, BAT2). If the reading is between 20 and 26
bolts, the batteries are normal.
3. Gradually increase the resistance of the variable
resistor from zero. Measure the voltage “V2” (the
voltage across the F and E terminals).
Check to see that the voltage across “V1” changes
at this time. If there is no change, the voltage
regulator is faulty and must be replaced.
4. Measure the voltage at “V4” (the voltage across the
variable resistor center tap and terminal E with the
variable resistor resistance held constant). The
measure voltage should be within the specified
(14.4 ± 0.3 volts) limits. If it is not, the regulator
must be replaced.
Reassembly
To reassemble, follow the disassembly steps in the
reverse order, noting the following points:
NOTE:
1) Never make battery connections with polarities
reversed, or battery will be shorted via the diodes.
This will cause damage to the diodes.
2) Do not connect generator B terminal to ground; it is
connected directly to the battery.
This cable will burn if it is connected to ground.
3) Make sure to disconnect the positive (+) terminal of
the battery when quick-charging battery.
Diodes may be damaged due to abnormal pulse
voltage generated by the quick charger.
4) When reassembling the front section to rear
section, insert a stiff wire into hole in the rear face
of the rear cover from the outboard side to support
the brush in raised position, then insert the front
section to which rotor is assembled.
5) Reassemble parts carefully to be sure they fit into
their original position, paying attention to the
insulated portions.
6) Wipe insulating tubes, washers and plates clean
and install them in position carefully to avoid getting
oil or grease on them.

in the ECM’s memory, the DTC(s) will be output from the
lowest to the highest, with each DTC being displayed
three times.
The DTC display will continue as long as the DLC is
shorted.
Reading Diagnostic Trouble Codes Using
a TECH 2
The procedure for reading diagnostic trouble code(s) is to
used a diagnostic Tech 2. When reading DTC(s), follow
instructions supplied by Tech 2 manufacturer.
For the 1998 model year, Isuzu dealer service
departments will continue to use Tech 2.
Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes
IMPORTANT:Do not clear DTCs unless directed to do
so by the service information provided for each diagnostic
procedure. When DTCs are cleared, the Freeze Frame
and Failure Record data which may help diagnose an
intermittent fault will also be erased from memory.
If the fault that caused the DTC to be stored into memory
has been corrected, the Diagnostic Executive will begin to
count the “warm-up” cycles with no further faults
detected, the DTC will automatically be cleared from the
ECM memory.To clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), use the Tech
2 “clear DTCs” or “clear information” function. When
clearing DTCs follow instructions supplied by the Tech 2
manufacturer.
When a Tech 2 is not available, DTCs can also be cleared
by disconnecting
one of the following sources for at least
thirty (30) seconds.
NOTE: To prevent system damage, the ignition key must
be “OFF” when disconnecting or reconnecting battery
power.
The power source to the control module. Examples:
fuse, pigtail at battery ECM connectors etc.
The negative battery cable. (Disconnecting the
negative battery cable will result in the loss of other
on-board memory data, such as preset radio tuning).

Diagnosis
To read and clear diagnostic trouble codes, use a Tech 2.
IMPORTANT:Use of a Tech 2 is recommended to clear
diagnostic trouble codes from the ECM memory.
Diagnostic trouble codes can also be cleared by turning
the ignition “OFF” and disconnecting the battery power
from the ECM for 30 seconds. Turning off the ignition and
disconnecting the battery power from the ECM will cause
all diagnostic information in the ECM memory to be
cleared. Therefore, all the diagnostic tests will have to be
re-run.
Since the ECM can have a failure which may affect only
one circuit, following the diagnostic procedures in this
section will determine which circuit has a problem and
where it is.
If a diagnostic chart indicates that the ECM connections
or the ECM is the cause of a problem, and the ECM is
replaced, but this does not correct the problem, one of the
following may be the reason:
There is a problem with the ECM terminal
connections. The terminals may have to be removed
from the connector in order to check them properly.
The problem is intermittent. This means that the
problem is not present at the time the system is being
checked. In this case, refer to the
Symptoms portion
of the manual and make a careful physical inspection
of all components and wiring associated with the
affected system.
There is a shorted solenoid, relay coil, or harness.
Solenoids and relays are turned “ON” and “OFF” by
the ECM using internal electronic switches called
drivers. A shorted solenoid, relay coil, or harness will
not damage the ECM but will cause the solenoid or
relay to be inoperative.
Multiple ECM Information Sensor
DTCS Set
Circuit Description
The Engine Control Module ECM monitors various
sensors to determine the engine operating conditions.
The ECM controls fuel delivery, spark advance,
transmission operation, and emission control device
operation based on the sensor inputs.
The ECM provides a sensor ground to all of the sensors.
The ECM applies 5 volts through a pull-up resistor, and
determines the status of the following sensors by
monitoring the voltage present between the 5-volt supply
and the resistor:
The fuel temperature (FT) sensor
The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor
The Intake air temperature (IAT) sensor
The ECM provides the following sensors with a 5-volt
reference and a sensor ground signal:
The Intake throttle position sensor
The manifold absolute pressure sensor
The rail pressure sensor
The accelerator position sensor
The oil temperature sensor
The camshaft position sensor
The crankshaft position sensor
The EGR pressure sensor
The ECM monitors the signals from these sensors in
order to determine their operating status.
Diagnostic Aids
IMPORTANT:Be sure to inspect ECM and engine
grounds for being secure and clean.
A short to voltage in one of the sensor input circuits may
cause one or more of the following DTCs to be set:
P0337
P0342
P1193
P1404
P1405
P1488
IMPORTANT:If a sensor input circuit has been shorted
to voltage, ensure that the sensor is not damaged. A
damaged sensor will continue to indicate a high or low
voltage after the affected circuit has been repaired. If the
sensor has been damaged, replace it.
An open in the sensor ground circuit between the ECM
and the splice will cause one or more of the following
DTCs to be set:
P0337
P0342
P0117
A short to ground in the 5-volt reference A or B circuit will
cause one or more of the following DTCs to be set:
P0112
P0117
P0182
P0197
An open in the 5-volt reference circuit A, between the
ECM and the splice will cause one or more of the following
DTCs to be set:
P0107
P0405
P1194
P0122
An open in the 5-volt reference circuit B, between the
ECM and the splice will cause one or more of the following
DTCs to be set:
P1485
Check for the following conditions:
Poor connection at ECM. Inspect the harness
connectors for backed-out terminals, improper
mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damage
terminals, and a poor terminal-to-wire connection.
Damaged harness. Inspect the wiring harness for
damage. If the harness is not damaged, observe an
affected sensor’s displayed value on the Tech 2 with
the ignition “ON” and the engine “OFF” while you
move the connectors and the wiring harnesses
related to the following sensors:
