CHARGING SYSTEM
CURRENT LEAKAGE TEST
Remove the seat (see page 2-3).
Turn the ignition switch “OFF”, and
disconnect the negative (-) cable from the
battery.
Connect the ammeter (+) probe to the
negative (-) cable and the ammeter (-) probe
to the battery (-) terminal.
With the ignition switch “OFF”, check for
current leakage.
Specified current leakage:
1 mA maximum
If current leakage exceeds the specified
value, a shorted circuit is likely.
Locate the short by disconnecting
connections one by one and measuring the
current.
CHARGING VOLTAGE INSPECTION
Start the engine and warm it up to operating
temperature; stop the engine.
Connect the multi-meter between the
positive and negative terminals of the
battery.
With the headlight on high beam, restart the
engine. Measure the voltage on the
multimeter when the engine runs at 5000
rpm.
Limit Voltage/Current: 13.5～15.5V/0.5A
max.
● When measuring current using a tester,
set it to a high range, and then bring
the range down to an appropriate level.
Current flow higher than the range
selected may blow out the fuse in the
tester.
● While measuring current, do not turn
the ignition switch “ON”. A sudden
surge of current may blow out the fuse
in the tester.
＊
● Make sure the battery is in goo
d
condition before performing this test.
● To prevent a short, make absolutely
certain which are the positive and
negative terminals or cable.
