condition is suspected, perform diagnosis by checking the
charging system as follows:
1. Check visually the belt and wiring connector.
2. With the engine in stop status, turn the starter switch
to "ON" position and observe the warning lamp.
• If lamp does not come on:
Disconnect wiring connector from generator, and
ground the terminal "L" on connector side.
