STATOR
l
Make continuity test on stator coil. Check to ensure that
there is continuity between coil leads.
If there is no continuity, replace stator assembly.
l
Check coil for grounding. Check-to ensure that there is no
continuity between coil and core. If there is continuity,
replace stator assembly.
RECTIFIERS
Positive Rectifier Test
Check for continuity between positive rectifier and stator coil
lead connection terminal with a circuit tester. If there is
continuity in both directions, diode is shorted.
Replace rectifier assembly.
Negative Rectifier Test
Check for continuity between negative rectifier and stator coil
lead connection terminal. If there is continuity in both direction,
diode is shorted, and rectifier assembly must be replaced.
DIODE TRIO TEST
Check three diodes for continuity by connecting a circuit tester
to both ends of each diode. If there is continuity or no continuity
in both directions, diode is defective and heatsink assembly
must be replaced.
