Analysis
No problem detected, the alternator is working
correctly.
Check the alternator transmission belt in case of slip-
page. Check if the connection between the alternator
and the battery is good. If both belts and the connec-
tion are in good condition, consult the manufacturer.
The battery is overcharged, the battery life will be
shorter and problems may occur. The alternator must
be replaced. The voltage of an alternator must not
exceed 14.7 V (+/-0.5V).
Check the alternator connection cable, alternator drive
belt and engine.
The diode is damaged. Check and replace the diode
