INSPECT GENERATOR BRUSH HOLDER ASSEMBLY
Using a vernier caliper, measure the brush length.
| Standard length |
|---|
| 9.5 to 11.5 mm (0.374 to 0.453 in.) |
| Minimum length |
|---|
| 4.5 mm (0.177 in.) |
If the brush length is less than the minimum, replace the generator brush holder assembly.
INSPECT GENERATOR ROTOR ASSEMBLY
Check the resistance.
Measure the resistance between the slip rings.
| Standard Resistance | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
If the result is not as specified, replace the generator rotor assembly.
Measure the resistance between each slip ring and the rotor.
| Standard Resistance | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
If the result is not as specified, replace the generator rotor assembly.
Check the slip ring diameter.
Using a vernier caliper, measure the diameter of each slip ring.
| Standard diameter |
|---|
| 14.2 to 14.4 mm (0.559 to 0.567 in.) |
| Minimum diameter |
|---|
| 14.0 mm (0.551 in.) |
If the diameter is less than the minimum, replace the generator rotor assembly.
Check the bearing.
Check that the bearing is not rough or worn, and that it rotates smoothly.
| OK |
|---|
| The bearing is not rough or worn, and rotates smoothly. |
If the result is not as specified, replace the generator rotor assembly.
INSPECT GENERATOR ROTOR BEARING
Check that the bearing is not rough or worn, and that it rotates smoothly.
| OK |
|---|
| The bearing is not rough or worn, and rotates smoothly. |
If the result is not as specified, replace the generator rotor assembly.
REPLACE GENERATOR ROTOR BEARING
Remove the 4 screws and retainer plate.
Using SST and a hammer, tap out the bearing.
Using SST and a press, press in a new bearing.
Install the retainer plate with the 4 screws.
