ELECTRICAL SYSTEMTM 5-3805-263-14&P-2TESTING AND ADJUSTING2. Cables between the battery, starter and engineground must be the correct size. Wires and ca-bles must be free of corrosion and have cablesupport clamps to prevent stress on battery con-nections (terminals).3. Leads, junctions, switches and panel instru-ments that have direct relation to the chargingcircuit must give correct circuit control.4. Inspect the drive components for the chargingunit to be sure they are free of grease and oil andhave the ability to operate the charging unit.Alternator Regulator (Delco-Remy)When an alternator is charging the battery toomuch or not enough, an adjustment can be made tothe charging rate of the alternator.Delco-Remy 24V 50A (5S9088 Alternator)The voltage adjustment screw for the 5S9088Alternator is located under the end plate.To adjust the voltage setting on this alternator,use the procedure that follows:1. Remove end plate (2) and cover (3) from thealternator.2. Remove the rubber sealant from the adjustmentscrew (4).3. Use a voltmeter to measure alternator voltageoutput.4. Turn adjustment screw (4) counterclockwise tolower the voltage setting. Turn adjustment screw(4) clockwise to raise the voltage setting.5. Put 3S6252 Rubber Sealant on adjustmentscrew (4) and install cover (3) and end plate (2).CAUTIONMake certain that field wire (5) is not locatedover transistor pins (6). The pins can make ahole in the insulation of the wire.1-76
