16. BATTERY/CHARGING SYSTEM DINK 50/125 CHARGING SYSTEM INSPECTION Remove the battery cover (see page 16-4). CURRENT LEAKAGE TEST Turn the ignition switch OFF, disconnect the negative (-) cable from the battery. Connect the ammeter (+) probe to the negative (-) cable and the ammeter (-) probe to the battery (-) terminal. With the ignition switch OFF, check for current leakage. When measuring current using a tester, set it to a high range, and then bring the range down to an appropriate level. Current flow higher than the range selected may blow out the fuse in the tester. While measuring current, do not turn the ignition switch ON. A sudden surge of current may blow out the fuse in the tester. Specified current leakage: 5 mA max. If current leakage exceeds the specified value, a shorted circuit is likely. Locate the short by disconnecting connections one by one and measuring the current. 16-8
