Section 8 (Charging System): Description: Gasoline
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Hyundai Tucson. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The charging system included a battery, a generator with a built-in regulator, the charging indicator light, and wiring. The generator has six built-in diodes (three positive and three negative), each rectifying AC current to DC current. Therefore, DC current appears at generator "B" terminal. In addition, the charging voltage of this generator is regulated by the battery voltage detection system.
The main components of the generator are the rotor, stator, rectifier, capacitor brushes, bearings and V-ribbed belt pulley. The brush holder contains a built-in electronic voltage regulator.
