STARTER MOTOR TEST (Sheet 3 of 5)

8. CHECK RESISTANCE BETWEEN

SOLENOID TERMINALS 1 (1), 2 (2), AND 3

(3), AND BETWEEN TERMINALS (1, 2, 3)

AND SOLENOID HOUSING (4) WITH

MULTIMETER SET ON RX10,000 OHMS.

IF MULTIMETER READS ANYTHING BUT

INFINITY, REPLACE SOLENOID SWITCH

CAUTION

Motor should not be run for more than 15 seconds

and should be cooled for 2 minutes after each run.

Motor could be damaged if run longer than 15

seconds.

9. CHECK MOTOR CURRENT, SPEED, AND
