Armature check (stator)
Tooling required
1 ohmmeter with .5

or, failing
this,
1 electric bell made up of a headlight bulb
fed by a 12 V battery • 1 val trneter.
- Remove alternator.

- With ohmmeter
The resistance measured between both ends
of the armature must be .5
-
With
electric bell
The electric bell Is connected between both
ends of the armature.
The potential
difference then read between these two ends
11ust be of approxi111ately 2 V.

- For Ducellier alternator,
dismantle diode-

-
On
insulating diode-holder (diode-holder
with
a
single diode), check that resistance
in one direction is from 15 to 30
; and
400 k
in the opposite di recti on (as an
indication, on the
Metrix
0hmmeter, the
pointer
shows
).
-
On
rectifying diode-holder (diode-holder with
2
diodes), check that resistance In one
direction is, for each
diode,
from 15 to
30
and
400 k
in the opposite direction.
- With electric bell
Diodes may also be checked with an electric
bell made up of a bulb connected in series
with a battery.
The
bulb must light up when the current flows
in one direction, and it must remain unlit In
the opposite direction.
