1. Disconnect the generator connector.
2. Turn ON the ignition switch.
3. Connect a voltmeter from BRN (25) wire at the generator connector to ground.

Does the voltmeter show battery voltage?

--

Go to Step 2

Go to Step 6

Connect the voltmeter from the terminal (BAT) at the generator to ground.

Does the voltmeter show battery voltage?

Go to Step 4

Go to Step 3

Locate and repair an open RED (2) wire from a fusible link at the splice S132 to the generator.

Is the repair complete?

--

System OK

--

1. Connect the generator connector.
2. Run the engine at fast idle.
3. Turn OFF all accessories.
4. Connect the voltmeter across the battery terminals.

Is the voltmeter reading within the specified range?

13--16 V

Go to Battery Load Test

Go to Step 5

1. Perform the generator bench test. Refer to Generator Assembly Bench Test.
2. If the generator is OK, perform the battery load test. Refer to Battery Load Test.
