If you need assistance in identifying the style of alternator installed on your engine, please review our (PDF), download your or contact a or the relevant product manufacturer. Once you have your proper setting identified: • Set the multi-tester dial to AC VOLTS or DC AMPS. • Insert the black multi-tester lead into the tester's COM receptacle. • For AC VOLTS, connect the other end to ground, such as an engine bolt or cylinder fin. • For DC AMPS, connect the other end to the battery’s positive terminal.
(NOTE: The battery must be grounded to the equipment frame of the engine block to create a complete circuit. Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood Torrent Download Eng Sub. ) • Insert the red lead on the multi-tester into the tester's receptacle (labeled AC VOLTS or AMPS). • Connect the red lead to the appropriate stator output wire. See illustrations below to see that your multi-tester is properly attached. • Start the engine and let it run for several minutes to reach its operating temperature. • Using a tachometer (service part number 19598), set the engine test speed and check the reading on the multi-tester. Unless specified, all tests should be carried out with the engine running at 3600 RPM.
• Compare your multi-tester reading against the recommended voltage (amps or volts) listed in the using the, or equipment manual. • Turn off the engine and disconnect the tester from your equipment. If your results do not match the specifications, you will need to replace your alternator stator in AC VOLT alternators.
For DC Amp alternators, replacing the stator, diode or regulator may be required.
