then let it idle.
7. Raise the engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it
there.
8. Turn the headlights (high beam) on, and measure
voltage at the under-hood fuse/relay box terminal.
ls the voltage between 13.9 and 15.1 v?
YES-Go to step 9.
NO Repair or replace the alternator components
(see page 4-30).1
9. Read the amperage at '13.5 V.
NOTE: Adjust the voltage by turning the blower
motor, rear window defogger, brake lights. etc. ON.
ls the amperage 604 ot morc?
YES-Alternator/regulator operation is OK. I

DTC P0505.
1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load (in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on,
then let it idle,
2. Checkthe engine speed at idle with no,load
conditions: headlights, blower fan, rear defogger,
radiator fan, and air conditioner off.
Is the engine running at 750t50 rpm?
YES - Intermittent failure, system is OK at this
trme.I
NO lf the idle speed is less than 700 rpm, go to
step 3; if it's 800 rpm or higher, go to step 4.
3. Disconnect the idle air control {lAC) valve3P
connector.
Does the engine speed increase or fluctuate?
YES- Check the idle speed {see page 1 1-138). lf the
idle will not adjust properly, clean the passage in
the throttle body, and then adjust the idle. I
NO- Replace the IAC valve.I
