ON-VEHICLE SERVICEGENERATOR OUTPUT LINE VOLTAGE DROP TEST
+I I.=-@=
Voltmeter
This test determines whether the wiring from thegenerator
“B” terminal to the battery (+) terminal
(including the fusible link) is in a good condition
or not.(1) Always be sure to check the following before
the test.l Generator installation
l Generator drive belt tension (Refer to
GROUP 00 - Maintenance Service.)l Fusible link
l Abnormal noise from the generator while
the engine is running
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
(3) Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(4) Disconnect the generator output wire from the
generator
‘73” terminal and connect a DC testammeter with a range of 0
- 100 A in series
between the “B” terminal and the disconnected
output wire. (Connect the
(+) lead of the amme-ter to the
‘73” terminal, and then connect the
Battery
6EN0962(-) lead of the ammeter to the disconnected
output wire.)
NOTE
A clamp-type ammeter which enables measure-
ments to be taken without disconnecting thegenerator output wire is recommended. The
reason for this is if a vehicle in which the voltage
may have dropped due to an imperfect connec-tion at the generator
“B” terminal is being in-
spected, and the generator “B” terminal is loos-
ened when the test ammeter is connected, the
connection will be completed at this time andthe possibility of finding problems will be re-
duced.
(5) Connect a digital-type voltmeter between thegenerator
“B” terminal and the battery (+)
terminal. (Connect the (+) lead of the voltmeterto the “B” terminal, and then connect the
(-)
lead of the voltmeter to the battery (+) cable.)

This test determines whether the generator outputs
normal current.(1) Before the test, always be sure to check the
following.l Generator installation
l
Battery (Refer to GROUP 54 - Battery.)
NOTE
The battery to be used should be slightly dis-charged. The load in a fully-charged battery
will be insufficient and the test may not be able
to be carried out correctly.l Generator drive belt tension (Refer to
GROUP 11- On-vehicle Service.)l Fusible link
l Abnormal noise from the generator while
the engine is running(2) Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
(3) Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(4) Disconnect the generator output wire from the
generator
“B” terminal and connect a DC testammeter with a range of O-100 A in series
between the “B” terminal and the disconnected
output wire. (Connect the
(+) lead of the amme-ter to the
“B” terminal, and then connect the(-) lead of the ammeter to the disconnected
output wire.)
Caution
Never use clips but tighten bolts and nutsto connect the line.
Otherwise loose
connections (e.g. using clips) will lead to
a serious accident because of high current.
NOTE
A clamp-type ammeter which enables measure-
ments to be taken without disconnecting the
generator output wire is recommended.(5) Connect a voltmeter with a range of 0
- 20
V between the generator “B” terminal and the
ground. (Connect the
(+) lead of the voltmeterto the “B” terminal, and then connect the (-)
lead of the voltmeter to the ground.)
(6) Connect a tachometer. (For the procedure forconnecting the tachometer, refer to GROUP
11 - On-vehicle Service.)
(7) Connect the negative battery cable.
(8) Leave the hood open.(9) Check to be sure that the reading on the
voltmeter is equal to the battery voltage.
NOTE
If the voltage is 0 V, the cause is probably an
open circuit in the wire or fusible link between
the generator “B” terminal and the battery
(+)
terminal.
(1O)After turning the light switch on and turning on
the headlights, start the engine.
(1l)lmmediately after setting the headlights to high
beam and turning the heater blower switch to
the high revolution position, increase the enginespeed to 2,500
r/min and read the maximum
current output value displayed on the ammeter.
Limit value: 70% of nominal current output
NOTEl
For the nominal current output, refer to the
Generator Specifications.l
Because the current from the battery will
soon drop after the engine is started, the
above step should be carried out as quickly
as possible in order to obtain the maximum
current output value.l The current output value will depend on
the electrical load and the temperature of
the generator body.l
If the electrical load is small while testing,the specified level of current may not be
output even though the generator is normal.
In such cases, increase the electrical load
by leaving the headlights turned on for sometime to discharge the battery or by using
the lighting system in another vehicle, and
then test again.l
The specified level of current also may not
be output if the temperature of the generator
body or the ambient temperature is too high.
In such cases, cool the generator and then
test again.
(12)The reading on the ammeter should be above
the limit value. If the reading is below the limit
value and the generator output wire is normal,
remove the generator from the engine and check
the generator.(13)Run the engine at idle speed after the test.
(14)Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
(15)Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(16)Disconnect the ammeter, voltmeter and
tachometer.(17)Connect the generator output wire to the
generator “B” terminal.
(18)Connect the negative battery cable.

Ignitionswitch (IGl)Generator
This test determines whether the voltage regulator
is correctly controlling the generator output voltage.
(1) Always be sure to check the following before
the test.l Generator installation
lCheck to be sure that the battery installedin the vehicle is fully charged. (Refer to
GROUP 54 - Battery.)l Generator drive belt tension (Refer to
GROUP 00 - Maintenance Service.)l Fusible link
l Abnormal noise from the generator while
the engine is running(2) Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
(3) Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(4) Connect a digital-type voltmeter between the
generator “S” terminal and the ground. (Connect
the
(+) lead of the voltmeter to the “s” terminal,
and then connect the (-) lead of the voltmeter
to a secure ground or to the battery (-) terminal.)
(5) Disconnect the generator output wire from the
generator
“B” terminal.(6) Connect a DC test ammeter with a range of
O-100A in series between the “B” terminal andthe disconnected output wire. (Connect the
(+) lead of the ammeter to the “B” terminal,
and then connect the (-) lead of the ammeter
to the disconnected output wire.)
(7) Connect a tachometer. (Refer to GROUP 11

(9) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and
check that the reading on the voltmeter is equal
to the battery voltage.
NOTE
If the voltage is 0 V, the cause is probably an
open circuit in the wire or fusible link between
the generator
“S” terminal and the battery (+)
terminal.
(1O)Check to be sure that all lights and accessories
are off.
(11) Start the engine.(12)lncrease the engine speed to 2,500
r/min.
(13)Read the value displayed on the voltmeter when
the current output by the generator becomes
10A or less.
(14)lf the voltage reading conforms to the value
in the voltage regulation table, then the voltage
regulator is operating normally.If the voltage is outside the standard value,
there is a malfunction of the voltage regulator
or of the generator.
(15)After the test, lower the engine speed to the
idle speed.
(16)Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position.
(17)Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(18)Disconnect the ammeter, voltmeter and
tachometer.(19)Connect the generator output wire to the
generator “B” terminal.

(1) Press the stop ring, by using an appropriate socket,wrench, to the snap ring side.
(2)After removing the snap ring (by using snap-ring pliers),
remove the stop ring and the overrunning clutch.STARTER MOTOR PARTS CLEANING
1.Do not immerse parts in cleaning solvent. Immersing the
yoke and field coil assembly and/or armature will damage
insulation. Wipe these parts with a cloth only.
2.Do not immerse drive unit in cleaning solvent. Overrunning
clutch is pre-lubricated at the factory and solvent will wash
lubrication from clutch.3. The drive unit may be cleaned with a brush moistened
with cleaning solvent and wiped dry with a cloth.

OVERRUNNING CLUTCH
1.While holding clutch housing, rotate the pinion. Drive pinionshould rotate smoothly in one direction, but should not
rotate in opposite direction. If clutch does not function
properly, replace overrunning clutch assembly.
2.Inspect pinion for wear or burrs. If pinion is worn or burred,
replace overrunning clutch assembly. If pinion is damaged,also inspect ring gear for wear or burrs.
FRONT AND REAR BRACKET BUSHING
Inspect bushing for wear or burrs. If bushing is worn or burred,
replace front bracket assembly or rear bracket assembly.
