STARTER RELAY CHECKING REFERENCE CHART

STARTER MOTOR PART CLEANING
- Do not immerse parts in cleaning solvent. Immersing the yoke and field coil assembly and/or armature will damage insulation. Wipe these parts with a shop towel only.
- Do not immerse the drive unit in cleaning solvent. Overrunning clutch is pre-lubricated at the factory and solvent will wash lubrication from the clutch.
- The drive unit may be cleaned with a brush moistened with cleaning solvent and wiped dry with a shop towel.
FRONT AND REAR BRACKET BUSHING CHECK
Inspect the bushing for wear or burrs. If the bushing is worn or burred, replace the front bracket assembly or rear bracket assembly.

- Check that the armature coil is not grounded.
- Place the armature in a growler.
- Hold a thin steel blade parallel and just above while rotating the armature slowly in the growler. A shorted armature will cause a blade to vibrate and be attracted to the core. Replace the shorted armature.
- Check the insulation between the armature coil cores and the commutator segments. They are normal if there is no continuity.
- Check for continuity between the segments. The condition is normal if there is continuity.
