 POOR CHARGING (BATTERY OVER DISCHARGING OR OVERCHARGING)
 Undercharging

 Inspection/Adjustment                        Symptom                         Probable Cause

 Start engine and test
 limit voltage between
 battery terminals

 Connect battery (+) wire
 to regulator/rectifier
 coupler red wire and
 battery (-) wire to ground
 and test voltage
                                Normal voltage           No voltage          Broken red wire

 Check regulator/rectifier
 coupler for loose

 Overcharging

 Inspection/Adjustment                         Symptom                        Probable Cause

 Connect battery (+) wire
 to regulator/rectifier
 coupler black wire and
 battery (-) wire to ground
 and test voltage
                              Battery has voltage   Battery has no
