ON-VEHICLE INPECTION
a.Check that the battery cables are connected to the correct terminals.
b. Disconnect the battery cables when the battery is given a quick charge.
c. Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running.
CHECK BATTERY VOLTAGE
1.If 20 minutes have not passed since the engine was stopped, turn the ignition switch ON and turn on the electrical
system (headlamp, blower motor, rear defogger etc.) for 60 seconds to remove the surface charge.
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF and turn off the electrical systems.
3. Measure the battery voltage between the negative ( - ) and positive (+) terminals of the battery.
Standard voltage : 12.5 ~ 12.9V at 20°C(68°F)
If the voltage is less than specification, charge the battery.
CHECK THE BATTERY TERMINALS AND FUSES
1.Check that the battery terminals are not loose or corroded.
2. Check the fuses for continuity.
INSPECT DRIVE BELT
Visually check the belt for excessive wear, frayed cords etc.
If any defect has been found, replace the drive belt.
Cracks on the rib side of a belt are considered acceptable. If the belt has chunks missing from the ribs, it should
be replaced.
VISUALLY CHECK ALTERNATOR WIRING AND LISTEN FOR ABNORMAL NOISES
1.Check that the wiring is in good condition.
2. Check that there is no abnormal noise from the alternator while the engine is running.
CHECK DISCHARGE WARNING LIGHT CIRCUIT
1.Warm up the engine and then turn it off.
2. Turn off all accessories.
3. Turn the ignition switch "ON". Check that the discharge warning light is lit.
4. Start the engine. Check that the light is lit.
If the light does not go off as specified, troubleshoot the discharge light circuit.
INSPECT CHARGING SYSTEM
VOLTAGE DROP TEST OF ALTERNATOR OUTPUT WIRE
This test determines whether or not the wiring between the alternator "B" terminal and the battery (+) terminal is good
by the voltage drop method.
PREPARATION
1.Turn the ignition switch to "OFF".
2. Disconnect the output wire from the alternator "B" terminal. Connect the (+) lead wire of ammeter to the "B"
terminal of alternator and the ( - ) lead wire of ammeter to the output wire. Connect the (+) lead wire of voltmeter to
the "B" terminal of alternator and the ( - ) lead wire of voltmeter to the (+) terminal of battery.
TEST
1.Start the engine.
2. Turn on the headlamps and blower motor, and set the engine speed until the ammeter indicates 20A.
And then, read the voltmeter at this time.
RESULT
1.The voltmeter may indicate the standard value.
Standard value: 0.2V max
2. If the value of the voltmeter is higher than expected (above 0.2V max.), poor wiring is suspected. In this case
check the wiring from the alternator "B" terminal to the battery (+) terminal. Check for loose connections, color
change due to an over - heated harness, etc. Correct them before testing again.
3. Upon completion of the test, set the engine speed at idle.
Turn off the headlamps, blower motor and the ignition switch.
OUTPUT CURRENT TEST
This test determines whether or not the alternator gives an output current that is equivalent to the normal output.
PREPARATION
1.Prior to the test, check the following items and correct as necessary.
Check the battery installed in the vehicle to ensure that it is good condition. The battery checking method is
described in the section "Battery".
The battery that is used to test the output current should be one that has been partially discharged. With a fully
charged battery, the test may not be conducted correctly due to an insufficient load.
Check the tension of the alternator drive belt. The belt tension check method is described in the section "Inspect
drive belt".
2. Turn off the ignition switch.
3. Disconnect the battery ground cable.
4. Disconnect the alternator output wire from the alternator "B" terminal.
5. Connect a DC ammeter (0 to 150A) in series between the "B" terminal and the disconnected output wire. Be sure
to connect the ( - ) lead wire of the ammeter to the disconnected output wire.
Tighten each connection securely, as a heavy current will flow. Do not rely on clips.
6. Connect a voltmeter (0 to 20V) between the "B" terminal and ground. Connect the (+) lead wire to the alternator "B"
terminal and ( - ) lead wire to a good ground.
7. Attach an engine tachometer and connect the battery ground cable.
8. Leave the engine hood open.
TEST
1.Check to see that the voltmeter reads as the same value as the battery voltage. If the voltmeter reads 0V, and the
open circuit in the wire between alternator "B" terminal and battery ( - ) terminal or poor grounding is suspected.
2. Start the engine and turn on the headlamps.
3. Set the headlamps to high beam and the heater blower switch to HIGH, quickly increase the engine speed to 2,500
rpm and read the maximum output current value indicated by the ammeter.
After the engine start up, the charging current quickly drops.
Therefore, the above operation must be done quickly to read the maximum current value correctly.
RESULT
1.The ammeter reading must be higher than the limit value. If it is lower but the alternator output wire is in good
condition, remove the alternator from the vehicle and test it.
Limit value : 70Ë of the rated current
a.The nominal output current value is shown on the nameplate affixed to the alternator body.
b. The output current value changes with the electrical load and the temperature of the alternator itself.
Therefore, the nominal output current may not be obtained. If such is the case, keep the headlamps on the
cause discharge of the battery, or use the lights of another vehicle to increase the electrical load.
The nominal output current may not be obtained if the temperature of the alternator itself or ambient
temperature is too high.
In such a case, reduce the temperature before testing again.
2. Upon completion of the output current test, lower the engine speed to idle and turn off the ignition switch.
3. Disconnect the battery ground cable.
4. Remove the ammeter and voltmeter and the engine tachometer.
5. Connect the alternator output wire to the alternator "B" terminal.
6. Connect the battery ground cable.
REGULATED VOLTAGE TEST
The purpose of this test is to check that the electronic voltage regulator controls voltage correctly.
PREPARATION
1.Prior to the test, check the following items and correct if necessary.
Check that the battery installed on the vehicle is fully charged. The battery checking method is described in the
section "Battery".
Check the alternator drive belt tension. The belt tension check method is described in the section "Inspect drive
belt".
2. Turn ignition switch to "OFF".
3. Disconnect the battery ground cable.
4. Connect a digital voltmeter between the "B" terminal of the alternator and ground. Connect the (+) lead of the
voltmeter to the "B" terminal of the alternator. Connect the ( - ) lead to good ground or the battery ( - ) terminal.
5. Disconnect the alternator output wire from the alternator "B" terminal.

Interior Lighting Functions
Room Lamps
1.The room lamps are can be controlled manually using the 3 - state (ON, DOOR, OFF) switch or by the Rear Area
Module (RAM). A main switch, located to the left of the steering wheel, is used as a master control switch. The
operating logic of the lamps will vary based on the position of the main switch ON, DOOR, or OFF).
2. Working conditions
a. The functioning depends on the key position in the key cylinder (OFF, ACC, RUN or START)
b. When the key goes in RUN or START position while the room lamps are decaying, then the room lamps are
turned off immediately.
c. When the Ignition key position is RUN or START and the last door is closed then the room lamps are OFF.
d. If the room lamps have been activated using the RKE UNLOCK function, and the ignition switch is turned to the
RUN or START position, the room lamps will be immediately turned OFF..
e. If the Ignition sw status is in RUN or START and Unlock information occurs, then the room lamp status is not
changed.
f. When the system enters to ARM WAIT mode by Remote Key or Mechanical cylinder lock switches the Room
lamp should be turned off immediately.
g. If there is RKE Lock signal at any door open, all doors should be locked first and wait for the all door close. No
action is taken while the Open Door status is OPEN and the doors are locked. Then when Open Door status
changes from OPEN to CLOSE, Room lamps will be OFF immediately.
h. The 30sec timer does not depend on the key reminder status.
i. If the main switch is changed to ON from DOOR after 20minute lamp OFF, all the lamps are turned ON.
j. If the Open Door status changes from OPEN to CLOSE (all doors close) when ignition switch is on RUN
position, room lamps and door courtesy lamps should turn off immediately (Do not decay off).
k. After 20minute Room Lamp OFF at door open, Room lamps are turned ON again when:
a. One of the door open switch's status changes. (Open to Close or Close to Open)
b. Ignition key is in RUN or START Position.
c. Receiving an UNLOCK event while a door is open and Main Room Lamp Switch is in the DOOR position.
l. For the room lamps, when the 20m timer is running and any of the side doors is opened the timer is restarted.
