Charge the battery fully.
☞ After charging, if charging current is over 3A after 10 minutes, battery would be bad. If battery is not good, battery is needed high charging current continuously.
Measure the voltage between battery (+) terminal and (-) terminal at IG key "START".
■ Specification : 10.5V ~ 13.0V
Is the voltage normal?
![]() | ▶ Go to "Dark current inspection" procedure as below. |
![]() | ▶ Replace the battery. |
For more accurate dark current inspection, perform following items.
● Remove the ignition key.
● Turn off all electric devices such as head lamp, audio.
● Keep hood switch to "OFF" and close all doors including trunk.
● Do not open/close doors while measuring.
Disconnect the (-) cable from battery (-) terminal after connecting (+) probe to battery (-) cable.
☞ Don't disconnect (+) probe to preventing system from initializing.
Measure the dark current between battery (-) terminal and battery (-) cable.
■ Specification : Below 50 mA
● (+) probe → "BATTERY" (-) cable
● (-) probe → "BATTERY" (-) terminal
Is measured dark current within specification?
![]() | ▶ Go to "Charging current inspection" procedure. |
![]() | ▶ If the measured value is over threshold(50mA), find out which part has the problem by removing the fuse one by one. ▶ Find out the cause of the problem refer to ETM. |
