INSPECT STARTER ASSEMBLY
Note
The following tests must be done within 3 to 5 seconds to avoid the coil from out.
Perform pull-in test.
Disconnect the field coil lead wire from terminal C.
Connect the battery to the magnetic switch as shown. Check that the clutch pinion gear moves outward.
Perform holding test.
When the battery is connected as above with the clutch pinion gear out, disconnect the negative (-) lead from terminal C. Check that the pinion gear remains out.
Inspect clutch pinion gear return.
Disconnect the negative (-) lead from the starter body. Check that the clutch pinion gear returns inward.
Perform the operation test without load.
Connect the field coil lead wire to terminal C.
Grip the starter with a vise.
Connect the battery and ammeter to the starter as shown.
Check that the ammeter reads the specified current.
