SOURCE: 1997 Sentra GXE Battery light goes on and off

probably is the regulator.....it is located inside of alternator.best bet replace entire altternator and be done with it.

SOURCE: 1991 nissan maximacharging problem. Had the alt. and the voltage regulator checked at two places and they said it was fine switched out the battery. No joy. I'm starting to think maybe a fuse or r

I don't have a diagram for a 91, but a 95 model has three fuses - the big one ( 100amp or more) a 10amp fuse for the charge light and a 7.5amp for the third circuit. There is no relay in the circuit.
The normal voltage should be 12-12.5 with the engine off and 14.5 with the engine running at 1500 RPM.

I have a 1987 chevy cavalier with a new alternator but the battery is not being charged

These systems have a 3 wire alternator with a internal regulator. Normal charging voltage is 13.2-14.8 volts @ 1000 rpm's just above a idle. With the engine OFF see if you can turn the alternator pulley a slipping belt drops charging potential. check for battery power with a volt meter on the 2 larger wires these should have battery voltage and with engine running they go up to charging voltage . the smaller wire is the turn on signal it only has power with the key on. . If larger wires have no power then the fuse link wire is burnt which is located on starter battery post. This wire is rubber coated and has a round clear raised connector with wire gauge stamped in it E.G. 14, 16. these wires never appear to be burnt pull on then gently if they stretch it is broken. replace with new fuse link wire. if all good then problem is alt.

Hi, there are 3 fuses the the alternator needs to charge the battery. These may be inside the car or in a box in the engine compartment. They are named IG1, ECU, and ALT. If you have trouble finding them, please get back to me.

Generator&regulator ck out fine,does not charge battery-charge lite stays on It is on a 1978 Ford 4500 back hoe tractor 3cyl diesel Thanks Bob.

POSSBILE CAUSE TO YOUR PROBLEM COULD BE WORN OR CORRODED BATTERY CABLES OR BATTERY FEED WIRE TO ALTERNATOR AND VOLTAGE REGULATOR WIRES COULD BE FRAYED OR BROKEN.MAKE SURE DRIVE BELT NOT SLIPPING OR YOU COULD HAVE BLOWN FUSE LINK.

My battery and ny alternator are new u think it can be that voltage regulator that is not chargeing my battery

Hi Nanfragoso,
The voltage regulator for your vehicle is built into your alternator. The vehicles on board computer controls the charging system. If it sees too high of a load,it can turn off (or down) the charging system at idle. Be sure to check the output at 1500 rpm.There are 3 fuses listed for the charging circuits. Two are located in the under hood fuse box. #15 and #19 are 60a fuses. One is located in the dash fuse box and is #2- 15a. Give these a quick check. If you don't find a blown fuse,drop me a line and we can go on with the diagnosis. Thanks,Chuck

New batteries and alt. still no charge.

Generator with Integral Rear Mount Voltage Regulator, Internal Fan Type With the key in the RUN position, voltage is applied through the charge indicator lamp I circuit to the voltage regulator. This turns the voltage regulator on, allowing current to flow from the battery sense A circuit to the generator field coil. When the engine (6007) is started, the generator (GEN) (10346) begins to generate alternating (AC) current which is converted to direct (DC) current by the rectifier internal to the generator. This current is then supplied to the vehicle's electrical system through the battery positive voltage (B+) terminal located on the rear of the generator. Once the generator begins generating current, a voltage signal is taken from the stator and fed back to the voltage regulator S circuit, turning off the charge indicator/lamp. With the system functioning normally, the generator output current is determined by the voltage at the A circuit. This voltage is compared to a set voltage internal to the voltage regulator, and the voltage regulator controls the generator field current to maintain proper generator output. The set voltage will vary with temperature and is typically higher in the winter than in the summer, allowing for better battery recharge. With the system functioning normally, the generator output current is determined by the voltage of the A circuit (battery sense voltage). The A circuit voltage is compared to a set voltage internal to the voltage regulator, which controls the generator field current to maintain proper output. The set voltage will vary with temperature and is typically higher in the winter than in the summer, allowing for better battery recharge in the winter and reducing the chance of overcharging the battery in the summer. A fuse link is included in the charging system wiring on all vehicles. The fuse link is used to prevent damage to the wiring harness and generator if the wiring harness should become grounded, or if a booster battery with the wrong polarity is connected to the charging system. Mitsubishi 215-Ampere Generator
The Mitsubishi 215-ampere generator is an internally regulated, brushless unit that is self-current limiting and temperature compensating. The regulator is integral with the generator and the fan is external.

VISUAL INSPECTION CHART Mechanical Electrical
  • Before attempting to test a battery, it is important to give it a thorough examination to determine if it has been damaged.
  • Batteries are tested to determine the state of charge and ability to crank an engine. The result of these tests is to show that the battery is either good, needs recharging, or must be replaced.
  • Preliminary checks to the charging system should be made regardless of the fault condition. These checks include:
    • Check the fuses/fuse links to the generator to ensure that they are not burned or damaged. This condition, resulting in an open circuit or high resistance, can cause erratic or intermittent charging system concerns.
    • Check battery posts and cable terminals for clean and tight connections. Clean the posts and the cables to ensure good electrical contact.
    • Check for secure connections at the generator output, voltage regulator and engine ground. Also check the connection at the power distribution point.
    • Check the generator drive belt to ensure proper tension and no slip between the generator pulley and the drive belt. Refer to Section 03-05 in the Powertrain, Drivetrain Manual.
    • Check battery for full charge.
  • Before performing charging system tests on the vehicle, note conditions such as: slow cranking, discharged battery, charge indicator lamp stays on with engine running, charge indicator lamp does not illuminate with ignition switch in RUN and engine not running, etc. This information will aid in isolating the part of the system causing the symptom.
  • When a relatively new battery is discharged, test for current drain. The following are some of the most common current drain concerns:
    • Glove compartment lamp stays on with the door closed.
    • Engine compartment lamp stays on constantly.
    • License plate lamp or interior lamp stays on constantly.
    • Other electronic component concerns.

Is the alternator ight coming on?
If you rev engine, does charging system start working?
There is a resister wire that provides voltage to the field circuit. If the resister is bad, you will only get voltage to the field through the dash alt. light bulb when you push enough voltage through it.

I don''t have 1993, but here is 96:
