CAUTIO
N: When probing connectors to take
measurements in the course of the pinpoint tests, use the adaptor kit,
part number 3548-1358-00.
• NOTE: When performing electrical voltag e or resistance tests, always use a digital multimeter (DMM) accurate to 3
decimal places, and with an up-t o-date calibration certificate. When testing resistance, always take the resistance of the
DMM leads into account.
• NOTE: Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic ro utines involving pinpoint tests.

Removal and Installation
Removal
1. Disconnect the batt ery ground cable.
Remove the battery cover.
2. Remove the air cleaner assembly (including fit body paintwork
protection sheets to the adja cent working area); refer to
operation 19.10.05.
3. Remove the twin fan and moto r assembly from behind the
radiator; refer to operation 26.25.12.
4. Check that the belt wear indicator is within the limit marks.
5. Remove the drive belt from the generator and accessory
drive,
1. Use a spanner e.g. Churchill JD-230 or Snap On XDHM 1415, on the centre bo lt of the belt tensioner
idler pulley, to turn the adju ster assembly to the left
against spring tension.
2. Whilst holding the tensioner against spring tension, remove the drive belt from the generator pulley.
Release the tensioner sl owly and remove the
spanner.
Disconnect the belt from the ot her pulleys, as necessary,
to move it clear of the generator.
6. Raise the vehicle on a ramp; refer to Section 100-02
7. Remove the air intake ducting fr om the generator. The ducting
comprises two sections; the upper section is retained by two
screws to the sump body assembly and the lower (horizontal)
section is retained by one screw.
8. Disconnect the generator harness.
1. Disconnect the harness multi-plug.
2. Remove the protective boot from the positive
terminal, remove the termin al nut and disconnect the
cable from the terminal. Where fitted, disconnect the
