4.Test rotor voltage - dynamic (engine run- ning)

a.Remove the jumper used in the previous step. Replace the spark plug wires, set the RUN/STOP switch to RUN, start the engine and run it at high idle speed (3700 RPM).

b.Connect the positive meter probe to the brush nearest the rotor lamination (leads #200A and #200). See Figure F.8 for location.

c.Connect the negative meter probe to the other brush (leads #201 and #5H).

d.Carefully measure the voltage. It should read approximately 46 - 52 VDC.

5.If the voltage reading is low or not present, the generator field is not functioning prop- erly. Perform the Rotor Resistance Test. Also check the field diode rectifier bridge, filter capacitor, and associated leads and connections. See Figure F.9 for location. See the Wiring Diagram.

6.Check the rotor ground wire #5H for good connection. See the Wiring Diagram.

7.If the rotor voltage readings are normal, the field circuit is functioning properly.

8.If finished testing, perform the Case Cover Replacement procedure.
