CAUTION:

• If
itbecomes necessary tostart theengine withabooster
battery andjumper cables, usea12-volt booster battery.
• After connecting batterycables, ensurethatthey aretightly
clamped tobattery terminals forgood contact.
• Never adddistilled waterthrough thehole used tocheck
specific gravity.
How toHandle Battery
METHODS OFPREVENTING OVER-DISCHARGE

T.he following precautions mustbetaken toprevent over-dis-
charging abattery.
• The battery surface (particularly itstop) should always be
kept clean anddry.
• The terminal connections shouldbeclean andtight.
• Atevery routine maintenance, checktheelectrolyte level.

SEL459R
•
When thevehicle isnot going tobe used overalong period
of time, disconnect thenegative batteryterminal. (Ifthe
vehicle hasanextended storageswitch,turnitoff.)
• Check thecharge condition ofthe battery.
Periodically checkthespecific gravityofthe electrolyte.
Keep aclose check oncharge condition toprevent overdis-
charge.

CHECKING ELECTROLVTELEVEL •
WARNING: Do not allow battery fluidtocome incontact withskin, eyes,
fabrics, orpainted surfaces. Aftertouching abattery, donot
touch orrub your eyes untilyouhave thoroughly washedyour
hands. Ifthe acid contacts theeyes, skinorclothing, immedi-
ately flush withwater for15minutes andseek medical atten-
tion.

Circuit Inspection (Cont'd)
Voltage checkmethod

1. Remove theblown fuseanddisconnect allloads (i.e.SW1 open, relaydisconnected andsolenoid •
disconnected) poweredthroughthefuse.
2. Turn theignition keytothe ONorSTART position. Verifybattery voltage atthe B
+
side ofthe fuse
terminal (oneleadonthe B

terminal sideofthe fuse block andone lead onaknown goodground).
3. With SW1 open andtheDMM leads across bothfuseterminals, checkforvoltage.

GROUND INSPECTION

Ground connections arevery important tothe proper operation ofelectrical andelectronic circuits.
Ground connections areoften exposed tomoisture, dirtand other corrosive elements. Thecorrosion
(rust) canbecome anunwanted resistance. Thisunwanted resistance canchange theway acircuit
works. Electronically controlledcircuitsarevery sensitive toproper grounding. Aloose orcorroded groundcan
drastically affectanelectronically controlledcircuit.Apoor orcorroded groundcaneasily affectthecir-
cuit. Even when theground connection looksclean, therecanbeathin film ofrust onthe surface.
When inspecting aground connection followtheserules:
1. Remove theground boltscrew orclip.
2. Inspect allmating surfaces fortarnish, dirt,rust, etc.
3. Clean asrequired toassure goodcontact.
4. Reinstall boltorscrew securely.
5. Inspect for"add-on" accessories whichmaybeinterfering withtheground circuit.
6. Ifseveral wiresarecrimped intoone ground eyeletterminal, checkforproper crimps. Makesure
all ofthe wires areclean, securely fastened andproviding agood ground path.Ifmultiple wiresare
cased inone eyelet makesurenoground wireshaveexcess wireinsulation.
