1. Charge battery up to full charge, then take it you a battery shop or parts store that has the battery test equipment taht can place a load on the battery and determine the condition of the battery.
note to file: a bad battery will give you all kinds of problems with your charging system, you must have a good battery.
2. generator test, if you cannot do the test then have it done by shop, but the generator must be working properly
3. VR test: when starting needle goes to (-) then after starting needle goes to (+) for a short while until battery is topped off. full charge.
