31. When a self-excited alternator's field has lost its residual magnetism due to a prolonged idle period, it will fail to produce a voltage. Flashing the field is the procedure used to restore the residual magnetism. Using a 12 volt storage battery, how is this performed?

Question

Accepted Answer

the f+ and f- leads are disconnected from the alternator field. the f+ lead is connected to the positive terminal of the battery, and the f- lead is connected to the negative terminal.
