4 Amp Regulated Alternator
The electrical system must be connected to a
charged 12 volt battery to test alternator output.
1. Disconnect battery ground cable from
battery negative (-) terminal.
2. Set meter. See Figure 11.
3. Place DC Shunt #19468 on negative
battery post. Install negative ([A] Fig. 19)
cable on DC shunt battery terminal.
4. Connect multimeter test leads to DC shunt
terminals, red to RED (B) and BLACK to
BLACK ([C] Fig. 19).
5. Adjust governor to 3600 RPM.
Output should be approximately 4 amps at 3600
RPM.
If output is acceptable:
• Remove test equipment.
• Return governor to original set RPM.
If output is less than 4 amps:
• Disconnect battery ground cable from
battery negative (-) terminal (A).
• Disconnect RED wire ([D] Fig. 19) from
regulator/rectifier.
• Set meter. See Figure 8.
• Connect test lead to wire disconnected
from regulator/rectifier.
• Connect second test lead to terminal B of
key switch.
• Turn key switch to RUN.
There should be continuity.
If there is no continuity:
• Replace the fuse between the key switch
and connector.
Retest to confirm repair.
If there is continuity:
• Reconnect RED wire to regulator/
rectifier.
• Disconnect wires at (E) and ([F] Fig. 19).
• Connect multimeter test leads to two
wires not connected to regulator/rectifier.
There should be continuity.
Fig. 19
• With one test lead still connected to one
of the wires, check for continuity to
ground with the other test lead. There
should not be continuity.
If there is continuity:
• Replace stator.
Confirm results after repair and return governor
to original set RPM.
NOTE: Early stators had connectors between
upper and lower halves. Both halves are
included for service.
9 Amp Regulated Alternator
The 9 amp regulated alternator system provides
AC through a single lead to the regulator–
rectifier. The regulator–rectifier converts AC to
DC, and regulates current to the battery.
Charging rate will vary with engine RPM, state of
battery charge and temperature.
NOTE: Regulator–rectifier will not function
unless it is grounded to engine. Make sure
regulator–rectifier is securely mounted to engine
against bare metal.
Test in the following sequence:
9 Amp AC Output Test
Temporarily disconnect stator wire harness from
regulator-rectifier.
1. Set meter. See Figure 5.
2. Attach RED test lead clip to green output
terminal ([A] Fig. 20).
