Charging System Circuit Description

The basic charging system consists of a Generator with an integral voltage regulator. The Generator supplies DC voltage to operate the vehicle's electrical systems and to charge the battery. Vehicles with the heated windshield option (C50) are equipped with an Generator that has three insulated terminals next to the OUTPUT terminal to make 3-phase AC power directly available to the heated windshield power module.
