9-10 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
INSPECTION
BATTERY CURRENT LEAKAGE
• Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
• Remove the battery cover. (!8-8)
• Disconnect the battery
- lead wire.
• Measure the current between battery
- terminal and
- lead
wire using the multi-circuit tester. If the reading exceeds the
specified value, leakage is evident.
$ Battery current (leak): Under 1 mA

REGULATED VOLTAGE
• Remove the battery cover. (!8-8)
• Start the engine and keep it running at 5 000 r/min with the
dimmer switch turned HI position.
• Measure the DC voltage between the battery
+ and
- termi-
nals using the multi-circuit tester. If the voltage is not within
the specified value, inspect the generator and regulator/recti-
fier. (!9-11 and -12)
NOTE:
When making this test, be sure that the battery is in fully-charged
condition.
$ Regulated voltage (Charging output):
13.5 – 15.0 V at 5 000 r/min

* In case of a large current leak, turn the tester to high
range first to avoid tester damage.
* Do not turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position
when measuring current.
