What are the causes of motorcycle rectifier damage?
1 Answers
Motorcycle rectifier damage may be caused by unqualified assembled components. The following is an introduction to motorcycle rectifier knowledge: 1. Damage detection: Whether the rectifier is damaged can only be accurately determined by measuring with a multimeter. First, fully charge the battery with a charger, then install the battery on the motorcycle, start the engine, increase the throttle, and measure the charging voltage across the positive and negative terminals of the battery with a multimeter. For vehicles with full-wave circuits, the battery voltage should reach about 14.5 volts when the throttle is increased. If the voltage is low, it indicates poor charging, which could be due to either rectifier issues or magneto coil problems. 2. Function: The rectifier's role is to convert the magneto's alternating current into direct current to power the vehicle's electrical appliances and charge the battery.
