LOAD TEST

BATTERY CONDITION
|
| OK (Green band) |
Battery capacity is good.
May or may not be fully charged. Determine state of charge
by checking specific gravity (use hydrometer). If gravity
is less than full charge. Check for possible charging
system trouble or electrical drain. Recharge battery to
full charge.
|
| Weak or bad, but steady |
Battery capacity is unsatisfactory.
Battery may be either: (1) defective or (2) partly discharged.
To determine which. Check specific gravity. If gravity
is over 1.225 battery is considered defective. If gravity
is under 1.225, recharge battery gravity to full charge
level. Battery either is sulfated or has lost active material. |
| Weak or bad, and falling |
Battery may be defective (e.g. a bad cell).
For a quick check, release load switch and note voltmeter reaction. If voltage
recovers to 12.0 volts or more in a few seconds, battery is probably defective.
If voltage recovers slowly, battery may be only very run-down. For more accurate
results, check gravity and follow above procedure.
