3.4.9. System of a charge of the battery

THE GENERAL DATA

Cистема a charge consists of the generator of the alternating current which has been built in the generator of a regulator of pressure, a control chain of a charge, the battery, a fusible crosspiece and connecting wires. At teamwork of these devices a food of such consumers as ignition system, illumination and alarm system devices is provided, the radio receiver, etc. a generator Drive is carried out from a belt in a forward part of the engine.

The pressure regulator is intended for maintenance of pressure of the generator at the set level. At sharp increase of pressure on an exit of the generator the regulator prevents throws of a current and an overload in a feed circuit.

Periodic care of charge system as a rule it is not required. However, it is necessary to examine periodically a belt of a drive of the generator, the battery and connecting wires.

The control lamp of a charge on the panel of devices lights up at inclusion of ignition and after engine start-up dies away. If the lamp does not die away after engine start-up in a charge chain it is faulty. Some cars are equipped with the voltmeter. If the voltmeter shows very high or very much a low voltage the charge chain requires check.

The prevention

At connection of the battery with the generator always observe polarity of connection.

Before repair of any site of the car by electric welding disconnect wires from the generator and the battery.

It is forbidden to start the engine at connected зарядном the device.

The generator is attached directly to the battery, therefore at закорачивании generator conclusions, or at its overload, formation of an arch and a fire is possible.

Check

At malfunction of a chain of a charge of the battery before to draw a conclusion on generator failure execute following checks.

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Check up a battery condition, a condition and reliability of fastening of wires and sockets. 2. Check up a condition and a tension of a belt of the generator. At detection of signs of deterioration a belt replace. 3. Check up an inhaling of bolts of the generator. 4. Start the engine and check up a sound published by the generator. 5. Check up fusible crosspieces, at detection of the fused crosspieces of inserts find out the reason and eliminate. 6. Check up pressure on the battery on the idle engine which should be about 12,5 Century 7. Connect the ampermeter and the voltmeter, start the engine and check up pressure which should be from 13,5 to 15 In at a current no more than 10 And. 8. Include a headlight of headlights, the conditioner and a heater. At normal work of system of a charge pressure should be not less than 13,5 In at a current nearby 30 And. 9. If pressure above 15 In replace a pressure regulator. 10. If pressure below normal connect to weight conclusion F and start the engine. 11. If pressure normal replace a pressure regulator. If pressure still low the generator is faulty.
