| 1. CHECK BATTERY CONDITION |
Check the battery for damage and deformation. If severe damage, deformation or leakage is found, replace the battery.
Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
For maintenance-free batteries:
For non-maintenance-free batteries:
| 2. CHECK BATTERY TERMINAL AND FUSE |
Check that the battery terminals are not loose or corroded.
If the terminals are corroded, clean the terminals.
Measure the resistance of the H-fuse and fuses.
| 3. CHECK V-RIBBED BELT |
![]() |
Check the belt for wear, cracks and other signs of damage.
![]() |
Check that the belt fits properly in the ribbed grooves.
| 4. VISUALLY CHECK GENERATOR WIRING |
Check that the wiring is in good condition.

Start the engine and check that the light turns off.
If the light does not operate as specified, troubleshoot the charge warning light circuit.
| 7. CHECK CHARGING CIRCUIT WITHOUT LOAD |
![]() |
Check the charging circuit.
Put the vehicle in a no-load test condition and run the engine at 2000 rpm. Using a voltmeter and ammeter, measure the battery voltage and amperage.
| 8. CHECK CHARGING CIRCUIT WITH LOAD |
![]() |
Put the vehicle in a load test condition (set the headlights to high beam and set the heater blower switch to Hi) and run the engine at 2000 rpm. Using an ammeter, measure the amperage.
Check the reading on the ammeter.
