3. INSPECTION
1) Alternator
Output Test ▶
Disconnect the cable connected to the B
terminal on the alternator. Connect one
end of the ammeter to the B terminal and
the other end to the cable connected to
the B terminal.
Measure the maximum output value.
(Maintain the engine speed between
2,500 and 3,000 rpm.)
(Turn the headlamp and all the electrical
switches on.) 1.
2.Pass: If the measured current
is 45 A or higher.
Fail: If the measured current is
less than 45 A.
Check the current of the B
terminal. -
-
-
Move the gear selector lever to the neutral
position.
Maintain the engine speed at 2,500 rpm
with the vehicle unloaded.
(Turn all the electrical switches off.) 1.
2.Open circuit: If the measured
current is 5 A or higher. -
Disconnect the negative cable from the
battery.
Remove the B terminal and turn off the
ignition switch.
Measure the resistance between the L
and F terminals with an ohmmeter. 1.
2.
3.Pass: If the measured
resistance is between 3 and
6Ω.
Faulty rotor coil or slip ring: If
the measured resistance is
less than 3Ω or greater than
6Ω. -
-
Connect the B terminal wiring.
Measure the voltage with the engine
running. 1.
2.
Specification: 12.5V to 14.5V
Faulty IC regulator or field
coil: If the measured voltage
is 14.5V or higher. -
-
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
Connect the negative cable again after connecting the ammeter. -

Using battery tester ▶
PASS (11.0 V or more): Explain to the customer that the battery is reusable.
Need to be charged (9.0 to 11.0 V): Charge the battery with a charger and reinstall it. Explain it to the
customer.
Need to be replaced (9.0 V or more): The battery should be replaced due to overdischarging. -
-
-
How to use battery tester ▶
Determine battery capacity by fixing current
(load capacity) and time and varying voltage.
Determine battery capacity based on the
amount of voltage drop when discharging a
fixed load capacity (120 A) for 5 seconds.
Connect the tester to the battery and read the
display while applying a load for 5 seconds. -
-
-
Red area (①): overdischarge or faulty
battery
Yellow area (②): Need to be charged
(using a vehicle alternator and a battery
charger)
Green area (③): Normal
Red area on the left-hand side of OK (④):
Impossible to charge with an alternator
Green area with OK (⑤): Normally charged
Red area on the right-hand side of OK
(⑥): Overcharged by an alternator -

Jump start ▶
If the battery is weak or terminated, the battery from another vehicle can be used with jumper cables to
start the engine.
Connecting order ▶
The positive (+) terminal of the discharged battery
The positive (+) terminal of the booster battery
The negative (-) terminal of the booster battery
Connect one end of the other jumper cable to the body of the discharged vehicle, such as the engine block
or a front towing hook. 1.

Starting ▶
Prepare a set of jumper cables.
Place another vehicle that has the same 12 V of power near to the discharged vehicle.
Switch off all electrical accessories for the discharged vehicle.
Apply the parking brake and shift the transaxle to the P position (automatic transaxle) or neutral (N)
position (manual transaxle).
Connect the jumper cables.
Try to start the discharged vehicle while accelerating the engine rpm in the booster vehicle.
Attempt to start the engine with the discharged battery.
After starting the engine, carefully disconnect the jumper cables in the reverse sequence of
connection. 1.

Maintenance ▶
If the charge warning lamp ( ) on the instrument cluster comes on while driving, there is a malfunction
in the charge system including the battery. Therefore, carrying out the system check is needed.
Make sure that the battery cables are firmly connected.
If the terminals are corroded, clean them with a wire brush or sandpapers.
Always disconnect the battery cables with the ignition key removed. When disconnecting the battery
cables with the ignition key turned to ON or ACC position, several electric units can be damaged due
to sudden voltage change.
Check the battery for crack, damage or fluid leaks. Replace it if necessary.
Wipe out the battery fluid on the battery surface using a rubber glove and a clean cloth wetted with
soapy water. -

Battery
It converts the chemical energy to the
electrical energy and supplies power to the
corresponding electric units when starting the
engine.
1. OVERVIEW
The charge system is designed to supply electrical energy to the vehicle while driving, and supplies a
constant direct current voltage by converting mechanical rotational movement to electrical energy. The
voltage regulator on the back of the alternator controls the generated voltage in all rotating ranges and
adjusts the system voltage according to the electric load and ambient temperature change.
Body ground
B+ wiringAlternator
The alternator charges the battery and
supplies power to each electric unit by
converting the mechanical energy to the
electrical energy.
