CHARGING SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATIONM1161000100522
The charging system uses the alternator output to
keep the battery charged at a constant level under
various electrical loads.
OPERATION
AKX00183
VoltageTime
Approximately
14.4 V
AC
Rota tion of the excited fi eld coil gene rates AC volt-
age in the sta t or .
This alternatin g cur r ent is rectified throu gh diodes to
DC volt
age h a ving a waveform sh own in t he illustra
-
tion.
The average outpu t volt a ge flu c tua t es slightly with
the alternato
r load con d ition.
When the ign i tion switch is t u rned on, current flows in
the field coil and initial e
x cit a tion of the field coil
occurs.
When the st ator coil beg ins to gen erate p o wer af ter
the eng
ine is st a r ted, th e fie l d coil is excited by th e
output
curren t of th e st ator coil.
The alternator outpu t volt a ge rises as th e fie l d cur-
rent increa ses and it falls a s the field cu rrent
decre
ases. Whe n the b a ttery volt a ge (alternato r "S"
terminal volt
ag e) reaches a regulated volt ag e of
approximately 14.4
V , the field current is cut o f f.
When th
e batte ry volt age drop s be low the regulated
volt
ag e, the volt ag e regulator re gulat es th e outp u t
volt
ag e to a const ant level by contro lling the field cur
-
rent.
In addition, when th e fie l d current is const a n t, the
altern
ator ou tput volt age rise s as the e ngine spe ed
increase

1.Befo re the t e st, always be sure t o che c k the
fo llowi ng.
•Alternator inst allatio n
•Battery (Refer to GROUP 54 A − Battery − On-vehi-
cle Serv ice P.54A-5).
NOTE: The battery sh ould be sligh t ly discharg ed.
The
load neede d by a fully-charge d batte ry is
in
sufficient for an accurat e test.
•Drive belt tension
(Ref er to GROUP 1 1 A − On-vehicle Service <4G1>
P.11A-7 or GROUP 1 1 C − On-vehicle Se rvice
<4G6> P.11C-7.)
•Fusible link
• Abnormal noise from the altern ator while the
eng
ine is ru nning .
2.T u rn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF)
po sit i on.
3.Disco nnect the ne gative ba ttery cable.
CAUTION
Never use clips but tighten bolts and nuts to con-
nect the line. Otherwise loose connections (e.g.
using clips) will lead to a serious accident
because of high current.
4. 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 pos
-
sibly not found the problem that the output current
is dropping due to the insufficient connection
between terminal "B" and the output wire.
5. Connect a voltmeter with a range of 0 − 20 V
between the alternator "B" terminal and the earth
[Connect the (+) lead of the voltmeter to the "B"
terminal, and then con nect the (-) lead of the
voltmeter to the earth].
6. Connect the negative battery cable.
7. Connect a tachometer or the M.U.T.-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. Leave the hood open.

WARNINGS REGARDING SERVICING OF SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) EQUIPPED VEHICLES
WARNING
•Improper service or maintenance of any component of the SRS, or any SRS-related component, can lead to
personal injury or death to service personnel (from inad vertent firing of the air bag) or to the driver and
paassenger (from rendering the SRS inoperative).
•Service or maintenance of any SRS component or SRS-related component must be performed only at an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
•MITSUBISHI dealer personnel must thoroughly review this manual, and especially its GROUP 52B - Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) before beginning any service or maintenance of any component of the SRS or any
SRS-related component.
NOTE
The SRS includes the following components: SRS air bag control unit, SRS warning light, front impact sensors, air bag module,
