front cover and the stator core.
Pry apart and separate the front cover, rotor, the rear
cover and stator.
NOTE: Take care not to scratch or otherwise damage the
stator coil with pry bar.

8. Remove Bolts which secure regulator, rectifier and
brush-holder, and separate these parts.
NOTE: Do not apply a shock or load to regulator, rectifier
and brush holder.

Inspection and Repair
Repair or replace necessary parts if extreme wear or
damage is found during inspection.
Rotor Assembly
1. Check the face of the slip rings for contamination and
roughness. If found to be scored, dress with a fine
sandpaper (#500 ±600). If found to be contaminated,
clean with a cloth saturated with alcohol.
2. Measure the outside diameter of the slip rings.
Standard: 27mm (1.06in)
Limit: 26mm (1.02in)
066RS032
3. Check resistance between slip rings, and replace if
there is no continuity.
Standard: 3.75 or less
066RS033

6D3±22
STARTING AND CHARGING SYSTEM (6VE1 3.5L)
4. Check for continuity between slip ring and rotor core.
In case of continuity, replace the rotor assembly.
066RS017
Stator Coil
1. Check for continuity across the stator coils. If no
continuity exists, replace the coils.
Resistance value at 20C.
Standard: Approx. 0.07
066RS034
2. Check for continuity across one of the stator coils and
stator core. If a continuity exists, replace the coil.
Standard: More than 1M
066RS035
Brush
Measure the brush length.
Replace the brush if it exceeds the limit.
Standard: 18.0mm (0.709in)
Limit: 5.5mm (0.217in)

STARTING AND CHARGING SYSTEM (6VE1 3.5L)
Rectifier Assembly
1. Measure the resistance between each diode terminal
and aluminum diode fin in forward and reverse
directions with the connection of the tester leads
switched. The diodes are normal if resistance is
nearly zero ohms in one direction and is infinitely high
in the other direction.
2. If a diode has no resistance or equal resistance in
both directions, it is defective and should be replaced
together with the holder.
066RS036
IC Regulator Assembly
Connect a variable resistor, two 12V batteries, a fixed
resistor, and a voltmeter to the IC regulator as shown in
illustration.
a. Measuring equipment specifications
1. Fixed resistor (R1) : 10 Ohms /3W
2. Variable resistor (Rv) : 0-300 Ohms/12W
3. Batteries (BAT1, BAT2) : 12V (2 Batteries)
4. DC voltmeter : 0-50V/0.5 steps (4 Check points)
b. Measuring procedure
1. Measure the voltage ªV1º across the first battery
(BAT1). If the reading is between 10 and 13 volts,
the battery is normal.
2. Measure the voltage ªV3º across both the batteries
(BAT1, BAT2). If the reading is between 20 and 26
bolts, the batteries are normal.
3. Gradually increase the resistance of the variable
resistor from zero. Measure the voltage ªV2º (the
voltage across the F and E terminals).
Check to see that the voltage across ªV1º changes at
this time. If there is no change, the voltage regulator
is faulty and must be replaced.4. Measure the voltage at ªV4º (the voltage across the
variable resistor center tap and terminal E with the
variable resistor resistance held constant). The
measured voltage should be within the specified
(14.4+0.3 volts) limits. If it is not, the regulator must
be replaced.
066RX003
Reassembly
To reassemble, follow the disassembly steps in the
reverse order, noting the following points:
NOTE:
Never make battery connections with polarities
reversed, or battery will be shorted via the diodes.
This will cause damage to the diodes.
Do not connect generator B terminal to ground; it is
connected directly to the battery.
This cable will burn if it is connected to ground.
Make sure to disconnect the positive (+) terminal of
the battery when quick-charging battery .
Diodes may be damaged due to abnormal pulse
voltage generated by the quick charger.
When reassembling the front section to rear section,
insert a stiff wire into hole in the rear face of the rear
cover from the outboard side to support the brush in
raised position, then insert the front section to which
rotor is assembled.
Reassemble parts carefully to be sure they fit into
their original position, paying attention to the
insulated portions.
Wipe insulating tubes, washers and plates clean and
install them in position carefully to avoid getting oil or
grease on them.

1. Using a press with a socket wrench attached,
reassemble rotor and rear end cover assembly in the
front cover.
066RS022
2. Install pulley on the rotor.
Secure the pulley directly in the vise between two
copper plates, and tighten nut to the specified torque.
Torque: 111 N´m (82 lb ft)
066RS010
Bench Test
Conduct a bench test of the generator.
066RS023
Preparation
Remove generator from the vehicle (see ªGenerator
removalº).
1. Secure generator to the bench test equipment and
connect wires.
Terminal ªIGº for energization
Terminal ªLº for neutral (warning lamp)
Terminal ªBº for output
2. Conduct the generator characteristic test.
Characteristics of generator are shown in illustration.
Repair or replace the generator if its outputs are
abnormal.
