Replace the regulator/rectifier if the readings
are not within the specifications in the table.
Regulator/Rectifier
REGULATOR/RECTIFIER
MAIN HARNESS CIRCUIT INSPECTION
Remove the front cover. ( 2-4)
Remove the regulator/rectifier 4P coupler and
check for continuity between the wire harness
terminals according to the following :
Item (Wire Color) Judgement
Between battery (red) Battery has
and engine ground voltage
Between ground wire
(green) and engine ground Continuity exists
Between lighting wire
(yellow) and engine
ground (Remove the A.C. generator
resistor coupler and auto coil has
bystarter coupler and resistance
turn the lighting switch
OFF for inspection)
Between charging coil A.C. generator
(white) and engine coil has
ground resistance
REGULATOR/RECTIFIER INSPECTION
If the main harness terminals are normal, Green
Red
check the regulator/rectifier coupler for loose
connection and measure the resistances
between the regulator/rectifier terminals.
· Do not touch the tester probes with
your finger because human body has
resistance.
· Use the following specified testers for
accurate testing. Use of an improper
tester in an improper range may give
false readings.
- Kowa Electric Tester
- Sanwa Electric Tester White Yellow
- Kowa Electric Tester TH-5H
· Proper range for testing:
- Use XK range for Sanwa Tester
- Use X100 range for Kowa Tester Unit:
· If the dry battery in the tester is weak, Probe
White Yellow Red Green
Probe(-)
the readings will be incorrect. In this
case, check the dry battery. White 2K~6K
· The Kowa tester readings are 100 Yellow 17K~25K
times the actual values. Be careful
during testing.
