CAUSE | SOLUTION |
When you turn on the ignition warning light battery charging |
Low Battery | Check the voltage and, if necessary, recharge the battery |
Unreliable connection or oxidation of the battery terminals | Check the connection and, if necessary, clean the terminals Batteries |
Securely tightened or oxidized at the contact wire generator | Check and, if necessary, tighten the wire attachment to the generator |
Blown control light | Replace the light bulb |
Faulty voltage regulator | Check and, if necessary, replace the voltage regulator |
Broken wire between the generator, ignition switch and control lamp | Check the voltage of the circuit, from the generator |
Brushes generator not flush against the contact rings | Check the length of the brushes and their freedom of movement in the holders |
Burned field winding | Check the rotor and the diodes that defects that must be replaced |
The warning lamp does not go out charging with an increase in engine speed |
A slack if worn ribbed belt | Check the condition of the V-ribbed belt tensioner and belt |
Faulty clutch idling (only TDI) | Remove the generator and turn counterclockwise shaft generator. If it does not rotate the movable pulley surface, means coupling idling defective |
Faulty alternator or voltage regulator | Disconnect from the back of the alternator wire (D +) and switch on the ignition. If the warning light is still lit up, it means that faulty alternator or voltage regulator |
Worn brushes Voltage Regulator | Check the length of the brush and, if necessary, replace them |
Faulty voltage regulator | Check voltage regulator and, if necessary, replace it |
Faulty Generator | Check generator and, if necessary, replace it |
Defective wire connecting the generator voltage regulator | Disconnect the blue wire to the electrical connector block 12 T32A junction box. If after that the control lamp is lit, the D + wire is shorted to ground and the need to replace the wire |
Faulty junction box | Disconnect the blue wire from the electric socket T32A. If, after this warning lamp lights up, it means that faulty distribution block |
The warning lamp lights up when charging the ignition off |
Short circuit diode | Check and, if necessary, replace the diode |
