CHECKING THE STARTER MOTOR

1. Check:
• Commutator
Dirt → Clean with 600 grit sandpaper.
2. Measure:
• Commutator diameter "a"
Out of specification → Replace the starter
motor.
Commutator diameter
17.6 mm (0.69 in)
Limit
16.6 mm (0.65 in)
a
3. Measure:
• Mica undercut "a"
Out of specification → Scrape the mica to the
proper measurement with a hacksaw blade
that has been grounded to fit the commutator.
Mica undercut (depth)
1.35 mm (0.05 in)
TIP
The mica of the commutator must be undercut to
ensure proper operation of the commutator.
4. Measure:
• Armature assembly resistances (commutator
and insulation) "1"
Out of specification → Replace the starter
motor.
