Alternator Belt Inspection and Adjustment
NOTE: When using a new belt, first adjust the deflection
or tension to the values for the new belt, then readjust
the deflection or tension to the values for the used belt
after running engine for 5 minutes.
Deflection method:
Apply a force of 98 N (10 kgf, 22 Ibf), and measure the
deflection between the alternator and crankshaft pulley.
Deflection:
Used Belt: 9.5 - 11.5 mm (0.37 - 0.45 in)
New Belt: 7.0 - 8.0 mm (0.28 - 0.31 in)
NOTE: If the belt is worn or damaged, replace it.
Belt tension gauge method:
Attach the belt tension gauge to the belt and measure the
tension. Follow the gauge manufacturer's instructions.
Tension:
Used Belt: 390 - 590 N (40 - 60 kgf, 88 - 130 Ibf)
New Belt: 780 - 980 N (80 - 100 kgf, 180 - 220 Ibf)
NOTE: If the belt is worn or damaged, replace it.

(
) before performing repairs or service.
1. Disconnect the 14P connector from the control unit.
2. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
If the terminals look OK, make the following input tests at the connector.
— If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
