ALTERNATOR
INSPECTION
Rotor
1. Wiring damage
(1) Measure the resistance between the slip rings
by using a circuit tester.
(2) If it is not within standard resistance, replace
the rotor.
Standard resistance: 2.0-2.6 C!
2. Ground of the rotor coil
(1) Check for continuity between the slip ring and
the core by using a circuit tester.
(2) Replace the rotor if there is continuity.
3. Slip ring surface
If the slip ring surface is rough, use a lathe or fine
sandpaper to repair it.
Stator
1. Wiring damage
(1) Check for continuity between the stator coil
leads by using a circuit tester.
(2) Replace the stator if there is no continuity.
2. Ground of the stator coil
(1) Check for continuity between the stator coil
leads and the core by using a circuit tester.
(2) Replace the stator if there is continuity.
