STARTING AND CHARGING SYSTEM (6VE1 3.5L)
Charging System
General Description
The IC integral regulator charging system and its main
components are connected as shown in illustration.
The regulator is a solid state type and it is mounted along
with the brush holder assembly inside the generator
installed on the rear end cover.
The generator does not require particular maintenance
such as voltage adjustment.The rectifier connected to the stator coil has diodes to
transform AC voltage into DC voltage.
This DC voltage is connected to the output terminal of
generator.

General On±Vehicle Inspection
A basic wiring diagram is shown in the illustration. When
operating normally, the indicator bulb will come on when
the switch is turned on, and will then go out when the
engine starts. If the indicator operates abnormally, or if an
undercharged or overcharged battery condition occurs,
the following procedure may be used to diagnose the
charging system. Remember that an undercharged
battery is often caused by accessories being left on
overnight, or by a defective switch which allows a bulb,
such as a trunk or glove box light, to stay on.
Observe the following procedure:
1. Visually check belt and wiring.
2. Go to step 5. for vehicles without charge indicator
light.
3. Switch on, engine stopped, light should be on. If not,
detach harness at generator, ground ªLº terminal
lead.a. Lamp lights, replace or repair generator.
b. Lamp dose not light, locate open circuit between
grounding lead and ignition switch. Bulb may be
open.
4. Switch on, engine running at moderate speed. Light
should be off. If not, detach wiring harness at
generator.
a. If light goes off, replace or repair generator.
b. If light stays on, check for grounded ªLº terminal
wire in harness.
5. Battery undercharged or overcharged.
a. Detach wiring harness connector from generator.
b. With switch on, engine not running connect
voltmeter from ground to ªLº terminal in wiring
harness, and to ªIGº terminal. If used. Wiring
harness may connect to either ªLº or ªIGº or both.
c. Zero reading indicates open circuit between
terminal and battery. Connect as required.

Anti-Theft System
General Description
The circuit consists of the starter switch, anti±theft &
keyless entry controller, anti±theft horn, front door and
tailgate key switch (detect and tamper) switch, door lock
actuator for each door, engine hood switch, clutch start
switch (M/T), ANTI±THEFT indicator light and mode
switch (A/T).
The system operates as follows: After locking the starter
switch and removing the starter key (this sets the alarm),
if the door is unlocked in any way other than with the
proper key, the headlights will start flashing, the horn
sounds, and the starter circuit is disabled. (However, the
engine hood and all the doors must be locked and closed.)
Once the system has been placed in the warning or alarm
condition, it can be released only when the starter switch
is shifted from ªOFFº to ªACCº by the starter key, or when
the lock of the front door or the tailgate is released (to
activate the detect switch) by the starter key.
