| 1. At malfunction of a chain of a charge of the battery about failure of the generator it is necessary to do a conclusion only after the following checks. |
| 2. Check a condition and a tension of a belt of the generator. At detection of signs of wear a belt replace. |
| 3. Check an inhaling of bolts of the generator. |
| 4. Check conducting of the generator and a tension regulator, reliability of fastening and a condition of sockets. |
| 5. Check fusible crossing points and safety locks. At detection of a peregoraniye find out the reason and eliminate. |
| 6. Start the engine and check a sound published by the generator (the howling or squealing sound indicates wear of bearings). |
| 7. Check electrolit density in the battery. If density low, charge the battery (this point does not belong to unattended batteries). |
| 8. Check completeness of a charge of the battery (at faulty section of the battery its recharge is possible). |
| 9. Disconnect cables from the battery and clear. |
| 10. Check operation of the relay of a control lamp (on cars from 1980 to 1992 the arrangement of the relay differs,
see fig. Installation of the relay of electric equipment of FJ60 cars, fig. Installation of the relay of electric equipment of FJ80 cars). |
| 11. Check tension on the battery on the idle engine. Tension should be about 12 Century. |
|
12. Start the engine and again check tension which should be now from 13,5 to 15,1 Century. |
| 13. Include a driving beam of headlights. At normal work of system of a charge tension should fall and again increase. |
| 14. If tension is higher normal, replace a tension regulator (see subsection 3.4.11). |
| 15. If tension is lower normal, check a regulator and the generator, having arrived as follows. |
|
16. Connect to weight F (1) conclusion on a back cover, start the engine, consider tension on the battery and compare to the standard. |
| 17. If tension is higher standard, replace a tension regulator. |
| 18. If tension is lower standard, check the generator (or in the absence of the ampermeter hand over in a car-care center workshop). |
| 19. If there is an ampermeter, include it in the charging scheme (see fig. The scheme for check of a current of a charge of the battery). In the absence of the ampermeter it is possible to use the current transformer. |
| 20. Finish engine turns to 2000 rpm, measure a current at the switched-off consumers. Then include a driving beam of headlights and the heater fan (the switch establish in the situation HI). Measure a current and compare to the values given in subsection 3.4.1. |
|
21. If the measured current less standard, repair or replace the generator.
