CHARGING SYSTEM
GENERAL
Fuse
If the battery is regularly discharged, check fuse
condition.
The rectifier/regulator could be the culprit of a
blown fuse. To check, simply disconnect the
rectifier/regulator from the circuit.
If the fuse still burns, check for a defective wire.
CAUTION: Do not use a higher rated fuse as
this cause severe damage.
NOTE: Since charging current flows through the
main fuse, check its condition.
The main fuse is located beside the VCM.

TESTING PROCEDURE
NOTE: First, ensure that battery is in good condi-
tion prior to performing the following tests.
Rectifier/Regulator
STATIC TEST: CONTINUITY
Due to internal circuitry, there is no static test avail-
able.
DYNAMIC TEST
Current Test
Proceed as follows:
Unplug the 2-pin rectifier/regulator connector.
