15. BATTERY/CHARGING SYSTEM/ A.C. GENERATOR ATV 50 REC/REG Connector A.C.G Connector A.C.GENERATOR INSPECTION (MXU 50REVERSE/MXU 50) Disconnect the A.C.Generator connector. Measure the resistance between the yellow wire terminals of the alternator side connector. Standard: 0.1-1 (20°C/68°F) Check for continuity between each yellow wire terminal of the alternator side connector and ground. Rectifier/Regulator There should be no continuity. Replace the alternator stator if resistance is out of specification, or if any wire has continuity to ground. REGULATOR/RECTIFIER Wire harness inspection Disconnect the regulator/rectifier connector. Check the connector for loose contacts or corroded terminals. Battery line Measure the voltage between the red wire terminal and ground. There should be battery voltage at all times. Ground line Check the continuity between the green wire terminal and ground. There should be continuity at all times. Voltage feedback line Measure the voltage between the black wire terminal and ground. There should be battery voltage with the ignition switch "ON" , and no voltage with the ignition switch "OFF". 15-9
