Scheme 27: Eclipse (With M/T) & Mirage (With M/T)
  1. Remove starter relay. See «STARTER RELAY LOCATIONS»(ref-5348-S03404174662000081400000) table. With no power supplied to any terminal, continuity should exist between relay terminals No. 1 and 3, and between relay terminals No. 2 and 4. (Scheme 27)and «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-5348-S16272827632000081400000).
  2. Connect a jumper wire from positive battery terminal to relay terminal No. 3 and another jumper wire from negative battery terminal to relay terminal No. 1. Continuity should not exist between relay terminals No. 2 and 4. Replace relay as necessary. NOTE: Terminals No. 1 and 3 in (Scheme 27) may be reversed. See «WIRING DIAGRAMS»(ref-5348-S16272827632000081400000).

PINION GAP MEASUREMENT

  1. Disconnect field coil wire from terminal "M" at starter solenoid. see scheme 7, see scheme 8, see scheme 9 or see scheme 10. Connect jumper wire between positive battery terminal of 12-volt battery and terminal "S" of starter solenoid.
  2. Connect a second jumper wire from negative battery terminal and touch terminal "M" of starter solenoid. Using a feeler gauge, measure clearance between pinion and stopper. (Scheme 28)
  3. Clearance should be within specification. See «STARTER SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-5348-S00218797422000081400000) table. Adjust clearance by adding or removing gaskets between solenoid and front housing.
