GENERAL INFORMATION

If the control lamp of a battery charging does not burn at ignition inclusion, check connection of wires to the generator and integrity of a control lamp. If the lamp still does not burn, check an electric chain from the generator to a lamp. If all electric chains are serviceable, so the generator is faulty and it should be replaced or repaired.

If the control lamp of a battery charging burns during the operation of the engine, stop the engine and check a state and a tension of a driving belt of the generator, and also connection of wires to the generator.

Check of the regulator of tension

PERFORMANCE ORDER

	1. Connect the voltmeter to poles of the accumulator and start the engine.
2. Increase engine turns before stabilization of indications of the voltmeter which has to show from 12 to 13 V, but no more than 14 Century.
3. Include the maximum number of electric consumers (headlights, a heater of back glass, the heater fan). Thus tension developed by the generator with tension regulator has to be ranging from 13 till 14 Century.
4. If tension does not correspond to the demanded sizes, worn-out brushes of the generator, a weak spring of brushes, the faulty regulator of tension, the faulty diode, break of a winding of the stator or defective contact rings of a rotor can be a cause of defect.
	5. Disconnect a plait of wires from the generator and check that on contact of S and contact In there is accumulator tension.
	6. Check accumulator tension on contact of IG. Tension on contact of IG has to appear after ignition inclusion.
	7. Connect contact of L with weight. Thus the control lamp of a battery charging has to light up.
