1.Charging Voltage: Normal
The charging system shows that the alternator output is normal, no problem detected.
2. Charging Voltage: Low
Charging voltage of the charging system is low.
Please check whether the driving belt of the alternator is loose or broken, and check whether the connections between the alternator and the vehicle battery are good.
If the belt and the connections between the alternator and the vehicle battery are good, the alternator is likely faulty.
3. Charging Voltage: high
Alternator voltage output exceeds the normal limits.
Most alternators use a built-in regulator, and for this kind of alternators, it is necessary to replace the alternator assembly to solve the problem of abnormally high charging voltage. Some conventional alternators use an external regulator, and for them, just replace the regulator.
Usually, the charging voltage is limited to 14.7 ± 0.5V by the regulator.
If the charging voltage is too high, the battery will be overcharged and as a result the battery life will be shortened or the battery will be damaged.
4. No Voltage Output
No alternator output voltage is detected. Please check whether the alternator's connections are good and whether the driving belt of the alternator is tight enough.
5. Diode Test
Through the test of charging current ripple, you can determine whether the rectifier diodes are good. If the ripple voltage is too high, it means that one or more rectifier diodes are damaged or the alternator stator is damaged. Please check for the bad diode(s) and replace all bad diodes, and check the alternator stator.
If the charging voltage is too high, the battery will be overcharged and as a result the battery life will be shortened or the battery will be damaged.
