Test Procedure 7 - Forward and Reverse Switch
19A
1. Use a continuity tester or a VOM set to Ω to test the forward and reverse switch in both directions:
E
1.1. With the forward and reverse switch in the forward position, place the red (+) probe on the com-
mon terminal of the switch, and place the black (-) probe on the terminal of the heavy purple wire
on the forward and reverse rotor (Figure 19-7). The reading should be continuity.
1.2. With the forward and reverse switch in the forward position, place the red (+) probe on the forward
terminal post of the forward and reverse switch, and place the black (-) probe on the terminal of
the heavy white wire on the forward and reverse rotor. The reading should be continuity.
1.3. With the forward and reverse switch in the reverse position, place the red (+) probe on the com-
mon terminal of the forward and reverse switch, and place the black (-) probe on the terminal of
the heavy white wire on the forward and reverse rotor.
1.4. With the forward and reverse selector in the reverse position, place the red (+) probe on the
reverse terminal of the forward and reverse switch, and place the black (-) probe on the terminal of
the heavy purple wire on the forward and reverse rotor.
2. If the reading is incorrect at any position in Step 1, see Forward and Reverse Switch, Page 19-32.
Test Procedure 8 - Motor
1. Use a continuity tester or a VOM set to Ω to test the motor armature and motor stator as follows.
1.1. To test the motor armature: with the forward and reverse switch in the neutral position, place the
red (+) probe on the terminal of the heavy purple wire on the forward and reverse rotor, and place
the black (-) probe on the last resistor coil connection (black and grey wires). The reading should
be continuity.
1.2. To test the motor stator: with the forward and reverse switch in the neutral position, place the red
(+) probe on the common terminal of the forward and reverse switch (brown wire), and place the
black (-) probe on the negative post of battery No. 6. The reading should be continuity.
2. If either reading in Step one is incorrect, check for loose wires or terminals. Then refer to Motor, Section
24, for further testing and repair procedures.
