Component Testing; Brush Switch - Toro Pro Sweep 5200 Service Manual

Component Testing

For accurate resistance and/or continuity checks, elec-
trically disconnect the component being tested from the
circuit (e.g. unplug the switch connector before doing a
continuity check on switch).

Brush Switch

The brush switch is used to turn the sweeper brush on
by energizing the brush motor solenoid (S3) and the de-
mand solenoid (S2). When the brush switch is in the off
position, the brush solenoid is not energized. The switch
includes an indicator light that will illuminate when the
brush switch is in the on position. This switch is located
in the control box enclosure (Fig. 2).
NOTE: If the hopper is in the raised position or if the
hopper switch is pushed to raise, the brush motor sole-
noid (S3) will be de–energized regardless of brush
switch position.
Testing
The brush switch terminals are marked as shown in Fig-
ure 3. The circuitry of this switch is shown in the chart be-
low. With the use of a multimeter (ohms setting), the
switch functions may be tested to determine whether
continuity exists between the various terminals for each
switch position. Verify continuity between switch termi-
nals.

CAUTION
When testing electrical components for continu-
ity with a multimeter (ohms setting), make sure
that power to the circuit has been disconnected.
