17. BATTERY/CHARGING SYSTEM UXV 500 CHARGING VOLTAGE INSPECTION Be sure that the battery is in good condition before performing this test. Do not disconnect the battery or any cable in the charging system without first switching off the ignition switch. Failure to follow this precaution can damage the tester or electrical components. Start the engine and warm it up to the operating temperature; stop the engine. Connect the multi-meter between the positive and negative terminals of the battery. To prevent short, make absolutely certain which are the positive and negative terminals or cable. With the headlight on and turned to the high beam position, restart the engine. Measure the voltage on the multi-meter when the engine runs at 5000 min-1 (rpm).
