SERVICE INFORMATION
GENERAL
• Always turn the ignition switch OFF before servicing the starter motor. The motor could suddenly start, causing serious
injury.
The starter motor can be serviced with the engine in the frame.
When checking the starter system, always follow the steps in the troubleshooting (page 22-4).
A weak battery may be unable to turn the starter motor quickly enough, or supply adequate ignition current.
If the current is kept flowing through the starter motor to turn it while the engine is not cranking over, the starter motor
may be damaged.
