Generator Signal Circuit: Procedure

  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (A/C AMPLIFIER - GENERATOR) 
    1. Disconnect the connector from the A/C amplifier.
    2. Disconnect the connector from the generator.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E9-24 (ALT) - B15-3 (M) Always Below 1 Ω
      E9-24 (ALT) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. INSPECT GENERATOR 
    1. Inspect the generator.
      1. for 2AZ-FE:
