Battery/Starter (Voltage Measurement) Two checking methods can be used to evaluate the battery and starter. The voltage measurements described here should be used for vehicles where it is not possible to adapt the current probe to the battery connection leads because of the cable routing or the number of cables.
Preparation Switch off the engine, switch off ignition, switch off all electrical loads. Connections
Procedure Start engine.
If the measured signal progression still does not correspond to the reference curve after the test is repeated, the fault must be isolated using the fault diagram below and if necessary continue measuring.
If the voltage levels are too low for the start and end signals, this clearly indicates that the battery is insufficiently charged. This can result in the high voltage dip on starting (minimum value).
