Reetifier Removal (cont'd)
MITSUBISHI:
5. Separate the rear housing from the stator/rectifier
assembly by removing the four screws and the ter-
minal nut.
6.
1.
Unsolder the rectifier from the stator leads.
. To avoid damaging the diodes with heat, pinch
the stator leads between pliers to carry heat off,
and apply the soldering iron only long enough to
separate the leads from the rectifier.
. Use a 100 W soldering iron.
Installthe new rectifier in the reverse order of removal.
. Apply the soldering iron only long enough to
ensure a good connection so the heat will not
damage the diodes.
. Use only a rgsin core type solder or solder joints
will cor.ode.
RectifierTest
NOTE: The diodes are designed to allow current to pass
in one direction while blocking it in the opposite direc-
tion. Since the alternator rectifier is made up of nine
diodes, each diode must be tested for continuity in both
directions with an ohmmeter that has diode checkino
capability; a total of 22 checks.
1. Check for continuity in each direction between- the B and P terminals.- the B' and P terminals,- E (ground) and the P terminals.
All diodes should have continuity in only one direc-
uon.
2.lf any of the diodes fails, replace the rectifier assem-
bly. (Diodes are not available separately.)

Rotor Slip Ring TestAlternator Brush Inspection
Separate the drive-end housing from the rear hous-
ing as described on page 23-l 1 1.
Separate the rear housing from the stator/rectifier
assembly by removing the four screws and the ter-
minal nut from the rear housing (see page 23-111).
Measure the length of the brushes with vernier
calrpers.
Alternator Brush Length:
O Standard (NEW)O Service Limit
19.0 mm (0.75 in)5.0 mm (0.20 in)
lf the brushes are less than the service limit, replace
them.

MITSUBISHI:
1. Checkthe resistance between the slip rings.
There should be 1.8 - 3.0 ohms.
. lf resistance meets the specification, go to step 2,
. lf resistance does not meet the specification,
replace the alternator.
SLIP RII{GS
Check that there is no continuity between the slip
rings and the rotor or rotor shaft.
lf the rotor fails either continuity check, replace the
alternator.
Stator Test
1. Check that there is continuity between each pair of
leads.
co|LconE
Check that there is no continuity between each
and the coil core.
lf the coil core fails either continuity check, replace
the alternator.

Rear Bearing ReplacementAlternator Reassembly
MITSUBISHI:
1. Pull off the rear bearing.
Make sure the tips of the bearing puller jaws are
thin enough to fit between the bearing and the
slip rings.
Do not reuse the bearing.
BEARING PULITRSLIPRINGS (Commorciallyav6ilable)
Use a hand press to install the new bearing. Applypressure only on the inner race to avoid damaging
the bearing.

REAR BEARING
1.Push the brushes in, then insert a pin or drill bit(about 1.8 mm diameter)to hold them there.
ARUSHES
Heat the rear bearing seat in the rear housing as
described on page 23-12. After heating, continue
immediately with assembling before the rear bear-ing seat cools completely.
Put the rear housing/stator assembly and drive-end
housing/rotor assembly together, tighten the four
through bolts and pull out the pin.

Detlection Method:
Apply a force ol 98 N (1 0 ksl, 22 lbl) and measure the
deflection between the alternator and the crankshaft
DUllev,
Defloction: 9- 11 mm (O.35-O.43 inl
NOTE: On a brand-new belt (one that has been run
for less than five minutes), the deflection should be
81881, Bl8Cl engine: 6 - 8 mm (0.23 - 0.32 inl,
818C5 engine: 7 - I mm (0.28 - 0.35 in) when first
measured, lf the belt is worn or damaged, replace it.

CRANKSHAFT PULLEY ALTERNATOR BELT
lf adiustment is necessary:
1. Loosen the alternator adjusting nut and mounting
nut.
2.
3.
Move the alternator to obtain the proper belt tension,
then retighten the adiusting nut and mounting nut
to the specified torques.
Recheck the dellection of the belt.
NOTE: lI necessary, adjust the P/S pump belt (see
section 17) and A/C compressor belt (see section
221.
Belt Tension Gauge Method:
Following the gauge manulacturer's instructions, attach
the belt tension gauge to the belt and measure the
tension.
Tension: 340-490 N {35-50 kgf,77-11O lbf)
NOTE: On a brand-new belt (one that has been run
for less than five minutes), tension should be
818B1, 818C1 engine: 690 - 880 N (70 - 90 kgf, 154 -
198 lbf), 818C5 engine: 540 - 740 N (55 - 75 kgf,
121 - 165 lbf) when first measured. lf the belt is
worn or damaged, replace it.
lf adiustment is necessary:
1. Loosen the alternator adjusting nut and mounting
nut.
2.
3.
Move the alternator to obtain the proper belt tension,
then retighten the adjusting nut and mounting nut
to the specified torques.
Recheck the tension ot the belt.
NOTE: It necessary, adjust the P/S pump belt (see
section 17) and A/C compressor belt (see section
22t.

Fan Motor Test
Disconnect the 2P connector from the fan motor.
Test the motor by connecting battery power to the
B terminal, and ground to the A termlnal.
lf the fan motor fails to run smoothly, replace it.
NOTE: The illustration shows the radiator fan.
Radiator Fan Switch Test
NOTE: Bleed air from the cooling system after installing
the radiator fan switch (see section 10)
1. Remove the radiator fan switch from the thermostat
housing.
2. Suspend the radiator fan switch in a container ol
coolanl as shown.
Heat the coolant and check engine coolant tempera
