(b) Using an ohmmeter, check the continuity between termi-
nals F and E.
Standard:
When the positive and negative poles between termi-
nals F and E are exchanged, there is continuity in one
way but no continuity in another way.
If the continuity is not as specified, replace the voltage regula-
tor.
8. INSPECT GENERATOR ROTOR ASSY
(a) Inspect rotor for open circuit.
(1) Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity
between the slip rings.
Standard resistance: 2.7 – 3.1 Ω at 20C (68F)
If there is no continuity, replace the rotor.
(b) Inspect rotor for ground.
(1) Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continu-
ity between the slip ring and rotor.
If there is continuity, replace the rotor.
(c) Inspect slip rings.
(1) Using vernier calipers, measure the slip ring diame-
ter.
Standard diameter: 14.2 – 14.4 mm (0.559 – 0.567 in.)
Minimum diameter: 12.8 mm (0.504 in.)
If the diameter is less than minimum, replace the rotor.
9. INSPECT GENERATOR HOLDER W/RECTIFIER
(a) Using an ohmmeter, connect one tester probe to the B or
E terminal and the other to each rectifier terminal.
(b) Reverse the polarity of the tester probes and repeat step
(a).
(c) Check that one shows continuity and the other shows no
continuity.
