    BATTERY TEST RESULTS REFERENCE CHART

    Result On Printer Remedy
    GOOD BATTERY No action is required.
    GOOD RECHARGE Battery is in a good state.
    Recharge the battery and use. (Battery may be charged by running the engine at idle for 20 minutes.)
    CHARGE & RETEST Battery is not charged properly.
    • Charge and test the battery again. (Failure to charge the battery fully may read incorrect measurement value.)
    REPLACE BATTERY Replace battery and recheck the charging system.
    • Improper connection between battery and vehicle cables may cause "REPLACE BATTERY", retest the battery after removing cables and connecting the tester to the battery terminal directly prior to replacing the battery.
    BAD CELL-REPLACE Charge and retest the battery.
    • If the Micro 570 recommends "REPLACE BATTERY", replace the battery and recheck the charging system.
    WARNING: Whenever filing a claim for battery, the print out of the battery test results must be attached.

    Starter Test Procedure

    STARTER TEST RESULTS REFERENCE

    Result On Printer Remedy
    CRANKING VOLTAGE NORMAL System shows a normal starter draw.
    CRANKING VOLTAGE LOW Cranking voltage is lower than normal level.
    • Check starter.
    CHARGE BATTERY The state of battery charge is too low to test.
    • Charge the battery and retest.
    REPLACE BATTERY Replace battery.
    • If the vehicle is not started though the battery condition of "GOOD BATTERY" is displayed, check wiring for open circuit, battery cable connection, starter and repair or replace as necessary.
    • If the engine does crank, check fuel system.
    NOTE: When testing the vehicle with old diesel engines, the test result will not be favorable if the glow plug is not heated. Conduct the test after warming up the engine for 5 minutes.
