TEST PROCEDURE | |
1. | Perform the Case Cover Removal proce- |
2. | dure. |
Connect the voltmeter probes to the brush | |
| terminals. See Figure F.10. See the wiring |
3. | diagram. |
Set the RUN/STOP switch to “RUN” and | |
| the IDLE switch to “HIGH”. Start the engine |
| and allow the RPM to stabilize for about 15 |
| to 30 seconds. |
4. | The meter should read 46 to 54 VDC. |
Set the RUN/STOP switch to “STOP” | |
5. | If the meter reading is normal, this test is |
6. | complete. |
If the voltage measures zero or very near | |
| zero, the rotor flashing circuit may be faulty |
| or the rotor may be shorted. |
