Using Battery Voltage Method
- Inspect the battery as follows after removing the battery filler caps, checking the water level, and adding water to the appropriate level if needed:
STEP INSPECTION RESULTS ACTION 1 Measure the battery positive voltage. 12.4 V or more Go to Step 3. Less than 12.4 V Go to the next step. 2 Quick charge for 30 min and recheck voltage. 12.4 V or more Go to the next step. Less than 12.4 V Replace the battery. 3 Using the battery load tester, apply load current (See battery load test current below) and record battery voltage after 15 s. Is voltage more than the specification? Yes Normal No Replace the battery. Battery load test current
