Default Re: starter or generator

Measure the voltage across the battery terminals when the engine is off. Should be approx 12.5 to maybe 13 volts if the battery is fully charged.
Start the engine and with the rpm about 1500 measure the voltage on the battery terminals again. It should read around 14 to 14.5 if the charging system is working.
