VOLTAGE REGULATOR TEST
IMPORTANT: Make sure meter is “zeroed” by
shorting meter leads together after changing
selector knob to appropriate setting. The meter
reading must read “0” Ohms.
IMPORTANT: The following regulator tests
should be performed as soon as possible after
suspected regulator failure. A “cold” regulator
may test “GOOD” when in fact it is defective
when “warm”.
Disconnect all voltage regulator wires.
