ALTERNATOR TERMINAL D+ CHECK

Check 5530AA

• Connect an Examiner in Voltmeter mode with the positive terminal to terminal D+ of the alternator and the negative earthed
• With the ignition on, ensure that the measured voltage is less than 5.5 Volt and that the generator warning light on the panel is on
• If the voltage is interrupted, the alternator is inefficient and should be replaced
• Start the engine and check, with voltage D+ greater than 5.5 Volt, that the generator warning light on the panel goes off and a correct battery recharging indication is displayed.
