Red Wire
CHARGING SYSTEM
CURRENT TEST
Use a fully charged battery (12.8V min.)
to check the charging system.
Warm up the engine before taking readings.
Connect an electric tester across the battery
terminals.
Disconnect the red wire from the fuse
terminal and connect an ammeter between
the red wire lead and the fuse terminal.
Attach a tachometer to the engine.
Start the engine and gradually increase the
engine speed to measure the limit voltage
and current.
Limit Voltage/Current: 1415V/0.5A max.
(5000rpm max.)
If the limit voltage is not within the specified
range, check the regulator/rectifier.
PERFORMANCE TEST
Engine Speed 2000rpm 5000rpm
Charging Current 7.5A min. 10.5A min. A.C. Generator Connector
When measuring the charging current,
disconnect the black wire from the
regulator/rectifier wire coupler.
If the readings do not meet the specified
values, check the regulator/rectifier.
A.C. GENERATOR INSPECTION
This test can be made without removing
the stator from the engine. Disconnect
the yellow wire from the auto bystarter.
Remove the met-in box.
Disconnect the A.C. generator connector.
Check the continuity between the yellow
wires and ground.
There should be continuity between the
yellow wires and no continuity between each
yellow wire and ground.

An excellent service and not too long too wait for the part to be delivered. I live in Germany and its not easy to get spare parts here. I hope not to need your services again but if I do I will have no hesitation in doing so. John W. Parmley
