Charging Test
1. Perform the test using ammeter and volt-
meter .
2. The battery charge condition is deter-
mined by measuring the specific gravity
of the battery electrolyte.
If the specific
gravity is lower than
1.2.G (at 2.0°C/68°F),
recharge the batte ry so that the specific
gravity is up to
1.26.-., 1.28 (at 20°C/68°F),
and then perform the following test.
3. Disconnect the battery cable from the
EB
termina l of the battery, and connect it
to the
EB side of the ammeter.
Next, connect the
8 side of the ammeter to the EB terminal of the battery.
Connect the
EB side of the voltmeter to the EB end of the battery cable, and ground the
8 side of the voltmeter. (Fig. 282)
4. Start the engine, operate the engine under both the NIGHT RIDING and DAY RIDING
conditions and check to see if the measured values conform to those specified in the
table below.
If the values are less than those specified, adjust the regulator.
Note:
The charge condition of the batter y may cause the charge current to vary slightl y.
