2001 INFINITI QX4 alternator

DIAGNOSTIC RESULT ITEM CHARTNBSC0020S01
Diagnostic item Service procedure
CHARGING SYSTEM NORMAL Charging system is normal and will also show DIODE RIPPLE test result.
NO CHARGING VOLTAGE Go to ªWORK FLOWº, SC-24.
LOW CHARGING VOLTAGE Go to ªWORK FLOWº, SC-24.
HIGH CHARGING VOLTAGE Go to ªWORK FLOWº, SC-24.
DIODE RIPPLE NORMAL Diode ripple is OK and will also show CHARGING VOLTAGE test result.
EXCESS RIPPLE DETECTEDReplace the alternator. Perform ªDIODE RIPPLEº test again using Battery/Starting/
Charging system tester to confirm repair.
DIODE RIPPLE NOT DETECTED Go to ªWORK FLOWº, SC-24.GI
