ELECTRIC STARTING SYSTEM
INSPECTION AND REPAIR
1. Check:
• Commutator
2. Measure:
• Commutator diameter a
3. Measure:
• Mica undercut a
NOTE:
The mica must be undercut to ensure proper
operation of the commutator.
4. Measure:
• Armature assembly resistances (commu-
• Measure the armature assembly resis-
tances with the pocket tester.
• If any resistance is out of specification,
replace the starter motor.

Dirt → Clean with 600 grit sandpaper.
Out of specification → Replace the
starter motor.
Min. commutator diameter:
