Run the alternatorat 5000 rpm (alt. speed) or2500 rpm<br />
(enginespeed) for 15 seconds. Read the voltage on the<br />
voltmeler. Wilh no load on lhe allernatof, the vollmeler<br />
should read 13.1-14.4 volts wilh the regulator ambient<br />
lemperalure at 25rc (77"F).<br />
Load lhe altematorwilh 10-15 amps, such as switching<br />
on headlights 10 ripper beam, <strong>and</strong> read thevollage. The<br />
voltage should still read betwe€n 13.1'14.4 volts, bul<br />
must notdrop more than ,4 volts less than the unloaded<br />
specification.<br />
For exact voltage at ambient lemperaturesee diagrams<br />
