DISMOUNTING
Place the vehicle on a two-column elevator
Disconnect the battery
Dismount the alternator upper attachment screw.
Dismount the front right wheel.
Lift the vehicle.
Dismount:
- protection fairing;
- lateral tie-rod (1);
- shock absorber two attachment screws (2) on steering knuckle.
Swing over the steering knuckle and remove the right planetary transmission from the plan-
etary gear of the gearbox.
Disconnect the electric connectors of the alternator.
Dismount the alternator lower attachment screw.
Dismount the alternator’s belt.
Remove the alternator, laterally by the right planetary transmission.
REMARK:
In order to replace the alternator belt, first dismount the accessories driving belt
(compressor and/or power steering pump).
REMOUNTING
Perform the dismounting operations in the reverse order.
Tighten the alternator driving belt to 263 HZ ± 10% by means of the MOT 1505 device (see
the method described in chapter 07 “ Accessories belts tightening”)
Tighten to the required moment the alternator’s attachment screws.
REMARK:
A dismounted belt is not to be remounted, but replaced.

DIAGNOSTIC
Special tool : CLIP tester – TECHNIC for measuring the battery voltage and the absorbed
intensity in the starting stage.
OPERATION ABNORMALITIES THAT MIGHT BE NOTICED
- Battery failure = large voltage drop on starter during engine starting stage.
- Blocked starter = the absorbed current is very high.
- Solenoid failure = the absorbed current is very low.
In order to perform the measurements, it is necessary the engine drive by means of the starter,
but stopping the engine starting.
To do that, disconnect the RPM sensor (located on clutch casing).
REMARK:
After performing this checking, erase by means of the CLIP tester, the possible failures
memorized by the computer.

IGNITION AND INJECTION

17 - 1
PRESENTATION
The system is composed of :
- electronic control unit (UCE injection);
- a double ignition coil;
- four spark plugs;
- spark plugs cables.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Subject to the information received from different sensors, but mainly subject to engine RPM
and charge, the electronic control unit will establish the advance at ignition, will identify the cylinders
being at upper dead point and consequently, will control the corresponding coil to them.
This is producing the spark at the level of the two cylinders being at upper dead point,
interrupting the mass connection of the corresponding coil.
