Insulated Brush Connection Test; Terminal-To-Brush Continuity Test; Terminal Bracket Insulation Test - Jeep 1979 CJ-5 Technical & Service Manual

STARTING SYSTEM 1F-9
solder joint (fig. 1F-7). If resistance is above zero ohms,
solder joint has excessive resistance. Repair by soldering
joint with 600 watt soldering iron.

Insilated I r i s ! Connection Test
This test determines the quality of the solder joint
between the insulated brush braided wire and the field
coils. Use ohmmeter to test resistance through solder
joint by touching probes to brush and to copper bus bar
(fig. 1F-8). If resistance is above zero ohms, solder joint
has excessive resistance. Repair by soldering joint with
600 watt soldering iron.

TerminaMo-Brush Continuity Test
This test checks all field coil solder joints.
(1) Insert piece of paper between contact points to
act as insulator (fig. 1F-9).
(2) Touch ohmmeter probes to terminal and to in-
sulated brush.
If resistance is above zero ohms, check all solder joints
to determine which one has excessive resistance. Repair
faulty solder joint(s) by soldering with a 600 watt solder-
ing iron.

Terminal Bracket Insulation Test
This test determines if the terminal bracket is prop-
erly insulated from the end cap. Use ohmmeter to test
continuity between bracket and cap (Fig. 1F-10). If re-
sistance is less than infinity, insulator is faulty. Repair
by replacing end cap.
