10.11.6. Diagnostics of malfunctions of the rechargeable battery

REASON
ELIMINATION METHOD
Electrolyte level is too low
Recharge. Evaporation (especially in the summer) To add the distilled water, to finish electrolyte level to ordered (at the charged rechargeable battery)
Electrolyte follows from traffic jams
Too highly charge voltage To check tension regulator, if necessary to replace
Electrolyte level is too high To suck away excess of electrolyte a pear
Electrolyte density is too small
Electrolyte density in one bank is much less, than in other banks Short circuit in one bank
Density of electrolyte is two next banks much less, than in the others The dividing wall therefore between banks there is a conductivity owing to what both of them are discharged is untight. To replace the rechargeable battery
The rechargeable battery is discharged To charge the rechargeable battery
The generator is faulty To check the generator, if necessary to repair or replace
Short circuit in an electrical wiring To check the electrical system
Electrolyte, owing to improper maintenance, is too diluted with water To make alignment of density of electrolyte
Density of electrolyte is too big
Electrolyte was added To level electrolyte density
The given power is too small, tension strongly falls
The rechargeable battery is discharged To complete charging the rechargeable battery
Too little charge voltage To check tension regulator, if necessary to replace
Connecting plugs weakened or are oxidized To clean connecting plugs and, especially lower party, to grease with a film of technical vaseline. To tighten fastening screws
Bad connection of weight: battery room battery-engine-body To check connection of weight, if necessary to restore metal contact and to tighten screws
The self-discharge of the rechargeable battery, as a result of electrolyte pollution is too big To replace the rechargeable battery
Sulphation of the rechargeable battery is possible (a gray-white raid on plus and minus plates) To charge the rechargeable battery with small currents for removal of a raid. If after repeated charging and a discharge the given power is still small, to replace the rechargeable battery
The rechargeable battery is worn-out, fall of active mass of plates To replace the rechargeable battery
Insufficient charging of the rechargeable battery
The generator, the regulator of tension or connection of conductors is faulty To check the generator and the regulator of tension, to repair or replace; to fix conductors
The belt weakened maple To pull maple a belt or to replace
Too many consumers are connected To install more powerful rechargeable battery, whenever possible, to install the new generator
Constant recharge
Tension regulator is faulty, it is possible also the generator To replace tension regulator, to check the generator
