			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-708" style="margin: 0px 5px;" title="AP-3_CHARGING SYSTEM TESTING" src="http://www.avitestprep.com/wp-content/uploads/AP-3_CHARGING-SYSTEM-TESTING.jpg" alt="AP-3_CHARGING SYSTEM TESTING" width="350" height="233" />In order to pass the ASE certification tests, you need to know the electrical system like the back of your hand.  This program with Dave Hobbs will get you grounded in the fundamentals of the charging system.</p>
<p>This program explains how alternators work and how they provide power.  Dave covers the components of an alternator and their functions.  He explains the types of alternator fields and the function of a voltage regulator: how diodes work and what causes current change.</p>
<p>Dave covers voltage drop and alternator ripple tests and when to use them.  He explains the multi-wire voltage regulator connector and common alternator failures and their probable causes.  Dave also provides hands-on test procedures using a VAT 40, volt meter and amp meter and loads of tips.</p>
