CHECKING THE RECTIFIER/REGULATOR
1. Check:
• Rectifier/regulator input voltage
Out of specification → Correct the stator
coil condition.
Refer to “CHECKING THE STATOR
COIL” on page 8-134.

a. Set the engine tachometer to the ignition
coil of cylinder #1.
b. Connect the pocket tester (AC 20 V) to the
rectifier/regulator coupler as shown.
c. Start the engine and let it run at approxi-
mately 5000 r/min.
d. Measure the rectifier/regulator input volt-
age.

2. Check:
• Rectifier/regulator output voltage
Out of specification → Replace the recti-
fier/regulator.
