Troubleshooting
lf the charging system light does not come on or does not go off, or the battery is dead or low, test the following items inthe order listed below:
1. Battery (see section 23)
2. Charging system light
3. Voltage
4. Alternator control system (U.S.A. model)
5. Alternator/regulator

Chsrging Systom Light Check:Turn the ignition switch ON {ll),and make sure the charging system light comes on.
Check for a blown No. 15 17.5 Alfuse and a blown charging sys-tem light bulb. lf the tusa .ndbulb are OK, repair th€ open inth€ WHT/BLU wire.
Does the charging systemlight come on?
Charging System Light Check{com'd}:Start the engine.
Does the charging systemlight go offfPerform the Alte.nator/RegulatorTest lsee page +281.
Voltage Check:Measure the voltage at the No. IlNo. 2iterminal of the 4P [3Plcon-nector with the ignition switch ON{ ).
Ropair the open in the BLK/YELwiae betwoen the altemator andunder-da3h luso/relay box.

Goolant Temperature Gauge
Gauge Testing
1. Check the No. 25 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash
fuse/relay box before testin9.
2. Make sure the ignition switch is OFF, then discon-
nect the YEL/GRN wire from the coolant tempera-
ture sending unit. and ground it with a jumper wire.
YEL/GRNWIRE
Turn the ignition switch ON {ll). Check that the
pointer of the coolant temperature gauge starts
moving toward the "H" mark. Turn the ignition
switch OFF before the pointer reaches "H" on the
gauge dial. Failure to do so may damage the gauge.
lf the pointer of the gauge does not move at all,
check for an open in the YEL/GRN wire.
lf the wires are OK, replace the coolant temperature
gauge.
lf the coolant temperature gauge works, test the
coolant temperature sending unit.
5.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
Coolant Temperature Sending Unit
Testing
1. Disconnect the YEUGRN wire from the coolant tem
perature sending unit.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
POSITIVETERMINAL
YEL/GRN WIRE(Covered withinsulation)
2. Using an ohmmeter, measure the change in resis-
tance between the positive terminal and the engine
(ground) with the engine cold and with the engine
at operating temPerature.
Temperature133.F (56'C)1A5 - 212F
(8s - 100'c)
Resistance(0)13746-30
3. lf the readings are substantially different from the
specitications above, inspect the coolant level and
the cooling system. lf the cooling system is OK,
replace the sending unit.
