CHARGING SYSTEM PFP:00011
System Description EKS00316
The alternator provides DC voltage to operate the vehicle's electrical system and to keep the battery charged.
The voltage output is controlled by the IC regulator.
Power is supplied at all times

through 10A fuse (No. 34, located in the fuse and fusible link box)

to alternator terminal 4 (“S” terminal).
“B” terminal supplies power to charge the battery and operate the vehicle's electrical system. Output voltage is
controlled by the IC regulator at terminal 4 (“S” terminal) detecting the input voltage. The charging circuit is
protected by the 120A (Gasoline engine models) or 100A (Diesel engine models) fusible link (letter A, located
in the fuse and fusible link box).
The alternator is grounded to the engine block.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No. 11, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 2 for the charge warning lamp.
Ground is supplied with power and ground supplied

to terminal 5 of the combination meter

through alternator terminal 3 (“L” terminal)

to alternator terminal E (Gasoline engine models) or through body ground (Diesel engine models)

through ground E30 (Gasoline engine models).
The charge warning lamp will illuminate. When the alternator is providing sufficient voltage with the engine
running, the ground is opened and the charge warning lamp will go off.
If the charge warning lamp illuminates with the engine running, a malfunction is indicated.

CHARGING SYSTEM

Trouble DiagnosisEKS00319
Before performing an alternator test, make sure that the battery is fully charged. A 30-volt voltmeter and suit-
able test probes are necessary for the test. The alternator can be checked easily by referring to the Inspection
Ta b l e .

Before starting, inspect the fusible link.

Use fully charged battery.
WITH IC REGULATOR
NOTE:

If the inspection result is OK even though the charging system is malfunctioning, check the “B” terminal
connection. (Check the tightening torque and voltage drop.)

Check condition of rotor coil, rotor slip ring, brush and stator coil. If necessary, replace malfunctioning
parts with new ones.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR
The IC regulator warning function activates to illuminate charge warning lamp, if any of the following symp-
toms occur while alternator is operating:

Excessive voltage is produced.

No voltage is produced.

Removal and Installation EKS0031A
REMOVAL (QR ENGINE MODELS)
1. Disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal.
2. Remove drive belt. Refer to EM-13, "
Checking Drive Belts" in EM section.
3. Remove alternator harness mounting bolt, ground mounting
bolt, alternator connector and “B” terminal mounting nut.
4. Remove alternator assembly upward.
5. Remove alternator mounting bolts.
REMOVAL (YD ENGINE MODELS)
1. Disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal.
2. Remove alternator harness mounting bolt, alternator connector
and “B” terminal mounting nut.
3. Remove alternator and water pump belt. Refer to EM-140,
"Checking Drive Belts" in EM section.
4. Remove alternator bracket mounting bolts and alternator
bracket.
5. Remove alternator mounting bolts.
6. Remove alternator assembly upward.
ALTERNATOR PULLEY INSPECTION (QR ENGINE MODELS)
One-Way Clutch Pulley Check
Fix rotor with inserting a suitable tool rolled with a cloth.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the rotor.
1. Check for locking. (Outer ring is turned clockwise when viewed
from the front.)

If it rotates in both directions... Replace pulley.
2. Check for dragging. (Outer ring is turned counterclockwise when
viewed from the front.)

If it locks or unusual resistance is felt... Replace pulley.
