REGULATED VOLTAGE TESTM1161001100354
This test determines whether the voltage regulator
correctly controlling the alternator output voltage.
1. Always be sure to check the following before the
test.
•Alternator installation
•Check that the battery installed in the vehicle is
fully charged.
(Refer to GROUP 54A − Battery − On-vehicle
Service − Charging P.54A-4).
•Drive belt tension
(Refer to GROUP 11A − On-vehicle Service <4G1>
P.11A-7 or GROUP 11C − On-vehicle Service
<4G6> P.11C-7.)
•Fusible link
•Abnormal noise from the alternator while the
engine is running
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF)
position.
3. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
4. Use the special tool Alternator test harness
(MB991519) to connect a digital voltmeter
between the alternator "S" terminal and earth
[Connect the (+) lead of the voltmeter to the "S"
terminal, and then connect the (-) lead of the
voltmeter to a secure earth or to the battery (-)
terminal].
5. Connect a clamp-type DC test ammeter with a
range of 0 − 120 A to the alternator "B" terminal
output wire.NOTE: The way of disconnecting the alternator
output wire and of connecting the ammeter is
possibly not found the problem that the output
current is dropping due to the insufficient
connection between terminal "B" and the output
wire.
6. Reconnect the negative battery cable.
7. Connect a tachometer or the MUT-II/III (Refer to
GROUP 11A − On-vehicle Service − Idle speed
check <4G1> P.11A-11 or GROUP 11C −
On-vehicle Service − Idle speed check <4G6>
P.11C-11).
8. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position and
check that the reading on the voltmeter is equal to
the battery voltage.
NOTE: If the voltage is 0 V, the cause is probably
an open circuit in the wire or fusible link between
the alternator "S" terminal and the battery (+)
terminal.
9. Turn all lamps and accessories off.
10.Start the engine.
11.Increase the engine speed to 2,500 r/min.
12.Read the value displayed on the voltmeter when
the alternator output current alternator becomes
10 A or less.
13.If the voltage reading conforms to the value in the
voltage regulation, then the voltage regulator is
operating normally.

<> DRIVE SHAFT REMOVAL
1. Use the following special tools to push out the
drive shaft from the hub and knuckle.
•Axle shaft puller (MB990241)
•Puller shaft (MB990242)
•Puller bar (MB990244)
•Puller body (MB991354)
•End yoke holder (MB990767)
2. Withdraw the drive shaft from the hub by pulling
the bottom of the hub and knuckle towards you.
3. Hang the drive shaft on the vehicle body with a
rope.
INSTALLATION SERVICE POINT
>>A<< STABILIZER
RUBBER/SELF-LOCKING NUT
(STABILIZER BAR CONNECTION)
INSTALLATION
Install the stabilizer rubber and collar as shown in the
figure, and tighten the self-locking nut so that the
protruding length of the stabilizer bar mounting bolt
protruding part meets its standard value (A).
Standard value (A): 22 ± 1.5 mm
>>B<< WASHER/ DRIVE SHAFT NUT
INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Before securely tightening the drive shaft nuts,
make sure there is no load on the wheel
bearings. Otherwise the wheel bearings will be
damaged.
1. Be sure to install the drive shaft washer in the
specified direction.
2. Using special tool end yoke holder (MB990767),
tighten the drive shaft nut to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 245 ± 29 N⋅m
