Turn the power switch OFF, and turn off the electrical systems

Wait 20 minutes, and then measure the battery voltage.

Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard voltage

STANDARD VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
Positive (+) terminal - Negative (-) terminal	20°C (68°F)	12.5 to 12.9 V

HINT:

If the voltage is not as specified, charge the battery

CHECK BATTERY TERMINAL AND FUSE

Visually check the battery terminals
1. Check that the battery terminals are not loose or corroded.

Check the H-fuses, M-fuses and fuses.

Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
