Ohmmeter INSPECTION
1. INSPECT COMMUTATOR FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
Continuity
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity between the
segments of the commutator.
If there is no continuity between any segment, replace the ar-
mature.
P10584
Ohmmeter 2. INSPECT COMMUTATOR FOR GROUND
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity between
No Continuity the commutator and armature coil core.
If there is continuity, replace the armature.
3. INSPECT COMMUTATOR FOR DIRTY AND BURNT
SURFACES
If the surface is dirty or burnt, correct it with sandpaper (No.400)
or on a lathe.
P10585
4. INSPECT COMMUTATOR CIRCLE RUNOUT
(a) Place the commutator on V-blocks.
(b) Using a dial gauge, measure the circle runout.
Maximum circle runout: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
If the circle runout is greater than maximum, correct it on a lathe.
P10586
5. INSPECT COMMUTATOR DIAMETER
Using a vernier caliper, measure the commutator diameter.
Standard diameter: 30.0 mm (1.181 in.)
Minimum diameter: 29.0 mm (1.142 in.)
If the diameter is less than minimum, replace the armature.
P10587
6. INSPECT UNDERCUT DEPTH
Check that the undercut depth is clean and free of foreign mate-
rials. Smooth out the edge.
Standard undercut depth: 0.6 mm (0.024 in.)
Minimum undercut depth: 0.2 mm (0.008 in.)
If the undercut depth is less than minimum, correct it with a
hacksaw blade.

7. INSPECT FIELD COIL FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
Ohmmeter Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity between the
Continuity lead wire and field coil brush lead.
If there is no continuity, replace the field frame.
P10588
8. INSPECT FIELD COIL FOR GROUND
Ohmmeter
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity between
No Continuity the field coil end and field frame.
If there is continuity, repair or replace the field frame.
P10589
Brush Holder Side 9. INSPECT BRUSH LENGTH
Using a vernier caliper, measure the brush length.
Standard length: 15.5 mm (0.610 in.)
Minimum length: 10.0 mm (0.394 in.)
If the length is less than minimum, replace the brush holder and
field frame.

10. INSPECT BRUSH SPRING LOAD
Take the pull scale reading the instant the brush spring sepa-
rates from the brush.
Standard spring installed load:
17.6 - 23.5 N (1.8 - 2.4 kgf, 3.9 - 5.3 lbf)
Minimum spring installed load: 11.8 N (1.2 kgf, 2.6 lbf)
If the installed load is less than minimum, replace the brush
springs.

Ohmmeter 11. INSPECT BRUSH HOLDER INSULATION
No Continuity
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity between
the positive (+) and negative (-) brush holders.
If there is continuity, repair or replace the brush holder.
P13481
12. INSPECT GEAR TEETH
Check the gear teeth on the pinion gear, idler gear and clutch
assembly for wear or damage.
If damaged, replace the gear or clutch assembly.
If damaged, also check the drive plate ring gear for wear or
damage.
13. INSPECT CLUTCH
Hold the starter clutch and rotate the pinion gear counterclock-
wise, and check that it turns freely. Try to rotate the pinion gear
Lock
clockwise and check that it locks.
If necessary, replace the clutch assembly.
