Description and Operation: Description: Notes
The charging system includes a battery, an alternator with a built-in regulator, and the charging indicator light and wire.
The Alternator has built-in diodes, each rectifying AC current to DC current.
DC current appears at alternator "B" terminal.
The regulator is regulates the charging voltage to maintain ECM signal.
The main components of the alternator are the rotor, stator, rectifier, capacitor brushes, bearings, regulator and V-ribbed belt pulley.
