Generator DescriptionS6RW0D1A01002
The basic charging system is the IC integral regulator charging system. The internal components are connected
electrically as shown below.
Charging System Circuit
The generator features a solid state regulator that is mounted inside the generator. All regulator components are
enclosed into a solid mold, and this unit along with the brush holder assembly is attached to the rear housing. The
regulator voltage is being controlled by ECM under some conditions while driving. Refer to “Generator Control System
Description in Section 1A” in related manual.
The generator rotor bearings contain enough grease to eliminate the need for periodic lubrication.
Two brushes carry current through the two slip rings to the field coil mounted on the rotor, and under normal conditions
will provide long period of attention-free service.
The stator windings are assembled inside a laminated core that forms part of the generator frame.
A rectifier bridge connected to the stator windings contains diodes, and electrically changes that stator AC. voltages to
a D.C. voltage which appears at the generator output terminal.

Diagnostic Information and Procedures
Battery InspectionS6RW0D1A04001
Common Causes of Failure
A battery is not designed to last indefinitely; however,
with proper care, it will provide many years of service. If
the battery performs satisfactorily during test buy fails to
operate properly for no apparent reason, the following
are some factors that may point to the cause of trouble:
• Accessories left on overnight or for an extended
period without the generator operating.
• Slow average driving speed for short periods.
• Electrical load exceeding generator output particularly
with addition of aftermarket equipment.
• Defects in charging system such as high resistance,
slipping drive belt, loose generator output terminal,
faulty generator or voltage regulator. Refer to
“Generator Symptom Diagnosis”.
• Battery abuse, including failure to keep battery cable
terminals clean and tight or loose battery hold down.
• Mechanical problems in electrical system such as
shorted or pinched wires.
Visual Inspection
Check for obvious damage, such as cracked or broken
case or cover, that could permit loss of electrolyte. If
obvious damage is noted, replace battery. Determine
cause of damage and correct as needed.
Generator Symptom DiagnosisS6RW0D1A04002
CAUTION!
• Do not mistake polarities of “IG” terminal
and “L” terminal.
• Do not create short circuit between “IG”
and “L” terminals. Always connect these
terminals through a lamp.
• Do not connect any load between “L” and
“E” terminals.
• When connecting charger or booster
battery to vehicle battery, refer to “Jump
Starting in Case of Emergency”.

Trouble in charging system will show up as one or more
of the following conditions:
1) Faulty indicator lamp operation.
2) An undercharged battery as evidenced by slow
cranking or indicator dark.
3) An overcharged battery as evidenced by excessive
spewing of electrolyte from vents.
Noise from generator may be caused by loose drive
pulley, loose mounting bolts, worn or dirty bearings,
defective diode, or defective stator.

4) Check slip rings for roughness or scoring. If rough or
scored, replace the rotor.
Using a vernier caliper, measure the slip ring
diameter. If the diameter is less than minimum,
replace the rotor.
Slip ring diameter
Standard: 14.2 – 14.4 mm (0.560 – 0.566 in.)
Limit: 12.8 mm (0.503 in.)
Stator
1) Using an ohmmeter, check all leads for continuity. If
there is no continuity, replace the stator.
2) Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity
between coil leads and stator core. If there is
continuity, replace the stator.
Brush and Brush Holder
Check each brush for wear by measuring its length as
shown. If the brush is found worn down to service limit,
replace the brush.
Exposed brush length “a”
Standard: 10.5 mm (0.41 in.)
Limit: 1.5 mm (0.05 in.)Rectifier
1) Using an ohmmeter, connect one tester probe to the
“B” terminal (1) and the other to each rectifier
terminal (2).
2) Reverse the polarity of the tester probes and repeat
Step 1).
3) Check that one shows continuity and the other
shows no continuity.
If there is continuity, replace the rectifier.
4) Using an ohmmeter, connect one tester probe to
each negative terminal (1) and the other to each
rectifier terminal (2).
5) Reverse the polarity of the tester probes and repeat
Step 4).
6) Check that one shows continuity and the other
shows no continuity.
If there is continuity, replace the rectifier.

Exhaust System
General Description
Exhaust System DescriptionS6RW0D1B01001
The exhaust system consists of an exhaust manifold, three-way catalytic converter (TWC) in catalyst case, exhaust
pipes, a muffler and seals, gasket and etc.
The three-way catalytic converter is an emission control device added to the exhaust system to lower the levels of
Hydrocarbon (HC), Carbon Monoxide (CO), and Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) pollutants in the exhaust gas.
Diagnostic Information and Procedures
Exhaust System CheckS6RW0D1B04001
WARNING!
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not touch the exhaust system when the system is hot. Any
service on the exhaust system should be performed when the system is cool.

At every interval of periodic maintenance service, and when vehicle is raised for other service, check exhaust system
as follows:
• Check rubber mountings for damage, deterioration, and out of position.
• Check exhaust system for leakage, loose connection, dent and damage.
• If bolts or nuts are loosened, tighten them to specified torque referring to “Exhaust System Components”.
• Check nearby body areas damaged, missing, or mispositioned part, open seam, hole connection or any other
defect which could permit exhaust fumes to seep into vehicle.
• Make sure that exhaust system components have enough clearance from underbody to avoid overheating and
possible damage to vehicle underbody.
• Any defect should be fixed at once.

Front Strut Assembly Removal and InstallationS6RW0D2206003
CAUTION!
When rebound stopper and strut assembly
were removed, check strut support lower nut
for specified torque before installing strut
assembly.

Removal
1) Remove hood rear seal (1), and then remove cowl
top garnish (2) from vehicle.
NOTE
When servicing component parts of strut
assembly, beforehand loosen strut nut a little
before removing strut assembly. This will
make service work easier. Note that the nut
must not be removed at this point.

2) Hoist vehicle, allowing front suspension to hang free.
3) Remove wheel and disconnect stabilizer joint (1)
from strut bracket.
When loosening joint nut, hold stud with hexagon
wrench (2).4) Remove brake hose mounting bolt (1). Remove
brake hose (2) from bracket and wheel speed sensor
harness (3) from strut bracket as shown in figure.
5) Remove strut bracket bolts and nuts (4).
6) Remove strut nut (1), and remove rebound stopper
(2).
NOTE
Hold strut by hand so that it will not fall off.

7) Remove strut assembly.
