HINT:
Check the indicator as shown in illustration.
4. CHECK BATTERY TERMINALS, FUSIBLE LINK AND
FUSES
(a) Check that the battery terminals are not loose or cor-
roded.
(b) Check the fusible link and fuses for continuity.
5. INSPECT DRIVE BELT
(a) Visually check the belt for excessive wear, frayed cords
etc.
If any defect has been found, replace the drive belt.
HINT:
Cracks on the rib side of a belt are considered acceptable. If the
belt has chunks missing from the ribs, it should be replaced.
(b) Using a belt tension gauge, measure the drive belt ten-
sion.
Belt tension gauge:
DENSO BTG-20 (95506-00020)
Borroughs No. BT-33-73F
Drive belt tension:
New belt175 ± 5 lbf
Used belt115 ± 20 lbf
If the belt tension is not as specified, adjust it.
HINT:
ºNew beltº refers to a belt which has been used less than
5 minutes on a running engine.
ºUsed beltº refers to a belt which has been used on a run-
ning engine for 5 minutes or more.
After installing a belt, check that it fits properly in the
ribbed grooves.
Check with your hand to confirm that the belt has not
slipped out of the groove on the bottom of the pulley.

After installing a new belt, run the engine for about 5 min-
utes and recheck the belt tension.
6. VISUALLY CHECK GENERATOR WIRING AND
LISTEN FOR ABNORMAL NOISES
(a) Check that the wiring is in good condition.
(b) Check that there is no abnormal noise from the generator
while the engine is running.
7. CHECK DISCHARGE WARNING LIGHT CIRCUIT
(a) Warm up the engine and then turn it off.
(b) Turn off all accessories.
(c) Turn the ignition switch ºONº. Check that the discharge
warning light is lit.
(d) Start the engine. Check that the light goes off.
If the light does not go off as specified, troubleshoot the dis-
charge light circuit.
8. INSPECT CHARGING CIRCUIT WITHOUT LOAD
HINT:
If a battery/generator tester is available, connect the tester to
the charging circuit as per the manufacturer's instructions.
(a) If a tester is not available, connect a voltmeter and amme-
ter to the charging circuit as follows:
Disconnect the wire from terminal B of the genera-
tor, and connect it to the negative (-) probe of the
ammeter.
Connect the positive (+) probe of the ammeter to
terminal B of the generator.
Connect the positive (+) probe of the voltmeter to
terminal B of the generator.
Ground the negative (-) probe of the voltmeter.
(b) Check the charging circuit as follows:
With the engine running from idling to 2,000 rpm, check
the reading on the ammeter and voltmeter.
Standard amperage: 10 A or less
Standard voltage: 13.2 -14.8 V
