DRIVE BELT
ON-VEHICLE  INSPECTION
1. INSPECT DRIVE BELT'S INSTALLATION CONDITION
Check that the drive belt fits properly in the ribbed grooves.
2. INSPECT DRIVE BELT TENSION
Using a belt tension gauge, check the drive belt tension.
Drive belt tension:
New belt: 165 ± 22 lbf
Used belt: 88 ± 22 lbf
HINT:
ºNew beltº refers to a belt which has been used less than
5 minutes on the running engine.
ºUsed beltº refer to a belt which has been on a running en-
gine for 5 minutes or more.

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
