CHECKING THE ALTERNATOR CONTINUITY
With motor off:
Remove the right side panel, see (SIDE PANELS
REMOVAL).
Detach regulator wiring connector (1).
Using a pocket multimeter, check continuity
between stator yellow wires (G).
Also check the insulation of the stator support.
Standard resistance: 0.1 - 1
Standard resistance between stator support and
wiring: (infinite resistance)
VOLTAGE REGULATOR
Remove the tail panel, see (TAIL PANEL
REMOVAL).
Remove the right side panel, see (SIDE PANELS
REMOVAL).
Disconnect the connectors (1) and (2).
Using a pocket multimeter (1 k scale) on the
regulator side, measure the resistance between
the wires shown in the table below.
If the measured resistance is not as specified,
replace the regulator.

CAUTION
This is a rough measuring method. If possible,
verify the recharging process by using another
regulator which has been checked to be in
working order
