STARTER SOLENOID
Connect a 12V battery between the starter
terminal andthesolenoidbody and check
for continuity between terminals.
NOTE: Continuity should exist when the
battery is connected and not exist when the
battery is disconnected.
BRUSH LENGTH
Measure the brush length:
Replace the brush if the brush length is less
than service limit.

ARMATURE
Continuity check: commutator segments
Checkthecontinuitybetweenthesegments.
If an open circuit (no continuity) exists
between any two segments, replace the
armature.
Continuity check: commutator to shaft
Checkthe continuity between commutator
and the armature shaft. If continuity exists
between any of the commutator segments
and the armature shaft, replace the arma-
ture shaft.
BRUSHES - CONTINUITY CHECK
Remove the armature and check for
continuity between the brushes. There
should be no continuity between the
brushes.
