BATTERY VOLTAGE AFTER REST
NOTESSpecial notes:
This value can only be interpreted after the engine and electrical consumers have been
stopped for at least 8 hours.
Apply if the Charge battery message is displayed on the instrument panel.
Recharge the battery (see Technical Note 6512A, Charging).
Check the battery (see 80A, Battery).
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

ALTERNATOR CHARGE
NOTESIf fault DF007 UPC-alternator connection is declared present, deal with this fault first.
Start the engine and let it idle for 5 minutes.
Check that the fan units are not running.
Without any electrical consumers switched on, check the value of PR010 Alternator charge.
PR010 decreases and is < 50 % after a few minutes.
"YES"
No interfering consumer is disturbing vehicle operation.
–Switch on the electric heated rear screen and the main beam headlights.
–Wait 20 seconds and then check that PR010 Alternator charge has increased but
remains less than 90%.
If PR010 Alternator charge remains stuck at 99.6%, replace the alternator (see MR 364
or MR 370 Mechanical, 16A, Starting - Charging, Alternator: Removal - Refitting).
PR010 remains > 50% after 20 minutes.
–See 16A, Starting - Charging, Alternator output.
"NO"
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

ALTERNATOR REGULATION
NOTESConditions for the application of the command:
–engine running at idling speed and warm engine,
–air conditioning off,
–check that the passenger compartment blower unit is not operating.
–check that the cooling fan assemblies are not operating,
–if fault DF007 UPC-alternator connection is declared present, deal with this fault
first,
–check the conformity of PR010 Alternator charge (see Interpretation of
parameters).
Effect of command:
–for 30 seconds, the Protection and Switching Unit sets the alternator a regulation
voltage of 15 V ± 0.5,
–then for another 30 seconds, the Protection and Switching Unit imposes a
regulation voltage of 13 V ± 0.5 on the alternator.
Switch off all the electrical consumers (fans, main beam headlights, etc.).
Measure the voltage across the alternator terminals, between the B+ terminal and the alternator chassis earth.
Run AC014 Alternator regulation.
Wait 20 seconds,
For 10 seconds the alternator voltage should be 15 V ± 0.5.
Wait 20 seconds,
For 10 seconds the alternator voltage should be 13 V ± 0.5.
Switch on the heated rear screen and the main beam headlights.
Run AC014 again.
Wait 20 seconds,
For 10 seconds the alternator voltage should be 15 V ± 0.5.
Wait 20 seconds,
For 10 seconds the alternator voltage should be 13 V ± 0.5.
If the values obtained are not correct, replace the alternator (see MR 364 or MR 370 Mechanical, 16A, Starting-
Charging, Alternator: Removal - Refitting).
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.
