1.Start the engine and run it at high idle (3650 RPM).

2.Set the voltmeter for AC volts and place one meter probe on each of the two outside leads that attach to the engine voltage regulator. See Figure F.5 for location. Check for 42-52 VAC at the voltage reg- ulator.

3.If the AC voltage is low or not present, the engine flywheel alternator may be faulty. This is an engine problem; consult your local engine repair facility.

4.If the voltage reading is correct, then check the out- put of the voltage regulator to determine the charg- ing voltage for the battery. Run the engine at high idle (3650 RPM). Set the voltmeter for DC volts and place the Positive meter probe on the middle lead and the Negative probe on the green ground wire connected to the voltage regulator. See Figure F.5.. The meter should read 13-15 VDC.

5.If the DC voltage reading is incorrect or not pre- sent, the voltage regulator may be faulty. Replace the entire voltage regulator module.

6.If the DC voltage reading is correct, check the associated wiring and circuitry. See the Wiring Diagram.
