Starter -- Inspection

1. INSPECT STARTER ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

As a large electric current passes through the cable during this inspection, a thick cable must be used. If not, the cable may become hot and cause injury.

NOTICE:

The following tests must be done within 3 to 5 seconds to prevent the coil from burning out.

Perform the operation test without load.
1. Grip the starter in a vise.
2. Connect the battery and an ammeter to the starter with terminal 30 disconnected.
  NOTICE:
  Do not connect terminal 30 to the battery in this step.
3. Connect terminal 30 to the battery and check that the starter rotates smoothly and steadily while the pinion gear is moving outward. Then measure the current.
  Standard current:
  200 A or less at 11 V
  If the result is not as specified, repair or replace the starter assembly.

2. INSPECT STARTER ARMATURE ASSEMBLY

Inspect the commutator for an open circuit.
1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
  Standard Resistance:
  Tester Connection
  Condition
  Specified Condition
  Commutator
  Always
  Below 1 Ω
  If the result is not as specified, replace the armature assembly.

Inspect the commutator for a short circuit.
1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
  Standard Resistance:
  Tester Connection
  Condition
  Specified Condition
  Commutator - Armature coil core
  Always
  10 kΩ or higher
  If the result is not as specified, replace the armature assembly.

Using a vernier caliper, measure the commutator diameter.
Standard diameter:
36.0 mm (1.42 in.)
Minimum diameter:
35.0 mm (1.38 in.)
If the diameter is less than the minimum, replace the armature assembly.

Measure the undercut depth of the commutator.
Standard undercut depth:
0.7 mm (0.0276 in.)
Minimum undercut depth:
0.2 mm (0.00787 in.)
If the undercut depth is less than the minimum, increase the depth using a hacksaw blade.

Check that the bearing rotates smoothly.
If necessary, replace the starter armature assembly.

Inspect the commutator circle runout.
1. Place the commutator on V-blocks.
2. Using a dial indicator, measure the circle runout.
  Maximum circle runout:
  0.05 mm (0.00197 in.)
  If the runout is more than the maximum, correct it with sandpaper (#400) or replace the armature assembly.

3. INSPECT STARTER YOKE ASSEMBLY

Inspect the field coil for an open circuit.
1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
  Standard Resistance:
  Tester Connection
  Condition
  Specified Condition
  Terminal C plate - Brushes
  Always
  Below 1 Ω
  If the result is not as specified, replace the starter yoke assembly.

Inspect if the field coil is grounded.
1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
  Standard Resistance:
  Tester Connection
  Condition
  Specified Condition
  Brushes - Starter yoke body
  Always
  10 kΩ or higher
  If the result is not as specified, replace the starter yoke assembly.

4. INSPECT STARTER BRUSH

Using a vernier caliper, measure the brush length.
Standard length:
21.0 mm (0.827 in.)
Minimum length:
12.0 mm (0.472 in.)
If the length is less than the minimum, replace the brush holder and starter yoke assembly.

5. INSPECT STARTER BRUSH HOLDER ASSEMBLY

Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection
Condition
Specified Condition
Positive (+) brush holder - Negative (-) brush holder
Always
10 kΩ or higher
If the result is not as specified, replace the brush holder assembly.

Inspect the load of the brush spring.
1. Take a pull scale reading immediately after the brush spring separates from the brush.
  Standard spring installed load:
  36 N (3.6 kgf, 8.0 lbf)
  Minimum spring installed load:
  12 N (1.2 kgf, 2.7 lbf)
  If the spring installed load is less than the minimum, replace the brush holder assembly.

6. INSPECT STARTER CLUTCH SUB-ASSEMBLY

Check the starter clutch operation.
1. Hold the clutch and bearing with one hand and turn the shaft with the other. Check that the inner sleeve turns easily in the "free" direction but cannot turn in the "lock" direction as shown in the illustration.
  If the starter clutch sub-assembly does not operate as specified, replace the starter clutch sub-assembly.

7. INSPECT MAGNET STARTER SWITCH ASSEMBLY

Check the pull-in coil for an open circuit.
1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
  Standard Resistance:
  Tester Connection
  Condition
  Specified Condition
  Terminal 50 - Terminal C
  Always
  Below 1 Ω
  If the result is not as specified, replace the magnet starter switch assembly.

Check the hold-in coil for an open circuit.
1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
  Standard Resistance:
  Tester Connection
  Condition
  Specified Condition
  Terminal 50 - Housing Body
  Always
  Below 2 Ω
  If the result is not as specified, replace the magnet starter switch assembly.

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
Commutator	Always	Below 1 Ω
