INSPECTION OF THE CHARGING SYSTEM
VOLTAGE DROP TEST OF ALTERNATOR OUTPUT WIRE
This test judges whether or not the wiring (including the fusible
link) between the alternator B terminal and the battery (+) terminal
is sound by the voltage drop method.
Preparation
(1) Turn the ignition switch to “OFF”.
(2) Disconnect the battery ground cable.
(3) Disconnect the alternator output lead from the alternator “B”
terminal.
(4) Connect a DC ammeter (0 to 100 A) in series to the “B”
terminal and the disconnected output lead. Connect the (+)
lead of the ammeter to the “B” terminal and the (-) lead to
the disconnected output wire.
NOTE
Use of a clamp type ammeter that can measure current with-
out disconnecting the harness is preferred. The reason is that
when checking a vehicles that has a low output current due to
poor connection of the alternator “B” terminal, such poor con-
nection is corrected as the “B” terminal is loosened and a test
ammeter is connected in its place and as a result, causes for
the trouble may not be determined.
(5) Connect a digital voltmeter between the alternator “B” termi-
nal and battery (+) terminal. Connect the (+) lead wire of the
voltmeter to the “B” terminal and the (-) lead wire to the
battery (+) terminal.
(6) Connect the battery ground cable.
(7) Leave the hood open.
Test
(1) Start the engine.
(2) Turn on or off the headlights and small lights and adjust the
engine speed so that the ammeter reads 20 A and read off the
voltmeter indication under this condition.
Result
(1) It is okay if the voltmeter indicates the standard value. ’
Standard value : 0.2 V max.
(2) If the voltmeter indicates a value that is larger than the stan-
dard value, poor wiring is suspected, in which case check the
wiring from the alternator “B” terminal to fusible link to bat-
tery (+) terminal. Check for loose connection, color change
due to overheated harness, etc. and correct them before test-
ing again.
(3) Upon completion of the test, set the engine speed at idle. Turn
off the lights and turn off the ignition switch.
(4) Disconnect the battery ground cable.
(5) Disconnect the ammeter and voltmeter that have been con-
nected for the test purpose.
(6) Connect the alternator output wire to the alternator “B” ter-
minal.
(7) Connect the battery ground cable.
