TROUBLESHOOTING FLOWCHARTS

The “Flow Charts” in this section may be used in con-

junction with the “Diagnostic Tests” of Section 7.

Numbered tests in the Flow Charts correspond to

identically numbered tests of Section 7.

Problems 1 through 5 apply to the AC generator only.

Beginning with Problem 6, the engine DC control sys-

tem is dealt with.
