EMPERATURE
reading indicates a specific gravity of 1.250 and the electrolyte
temperature is 90° F (2° C), add four points (.004) to the 1.250
which gives a corrected reading of 1.254. Similarly if the
temperature was 70° F (21° C), subtract four points (.004)
from the 1.250 to give a corrected reading of 1.246.
5. Test each cell and note the readings (corrected to 80° F or 27° C).
A variation of fifty points between any two cell readings
(example 1.250 - 1.200) indicates a problem with the low reading
cell(s).
As a battery ages the specific gravity of the electrolyte will decrease at
full charge. This is not a reason to replace the battery providing all cells
are within fifty points of each other.
Since the hydrometer test is in response to a vehicle exhibiting a
performance problem, the vehicle should be recharged and the test
repeated. If the results indicate a weak cell, the battery or batteries
should be removed and replaced with a good battery of the same brand,
type and approximate age.
Battery Charger Maintenance
Connect the charger plug into the vehicle receptacle and wait for the
relay to activate. Move the plug back and forth in the receptacle.
If the charger turns off, check the plug for a broken red wire in the DC cord.
