MAGNETIC SWITCH CHECK
+Before starting to check, disconnect battery ground cable.
+Disconnect ``M'' terminal of starter motor.
1. Continuity test (between ``S'' terminal and switch body).
+No continuity ... Replace.

PINION/CLUTCH CHECK
1. Inspect pinion teeth.
+Replace pinion if teeth are worn or damaged. (Also check con-
dition of ring gear teeth.)
2. Inspect reduction gear teeth (If equipped).
+Replace reduction gear if teeth are worn or damaged. (Also
check condition of armature shaft gear teeth.)
3. Check to see if pinion locks in one direction and rotates
smoothly in the opposite direction.
+If it locks or rotates in both directions, or unusual resistance is
evident. ... Replace.
BRUSH CHECK
Brush
Check wear of brush.
Wear limit length:
Refer to SDS (EL-51).
+Excessive wear ... Replace.
Brush spring pressure
Check brush spring pressure with brush spring detached from
brush.
Spring pressure (with new brush):
Refer to SDS (EL-51).
+Not within the speci®ed values ... Replace.
Brush holder
1. Perform insulation test between brush holder (positive side)
and its base (negative side).
+Continuity exists. ... Replace.
2. Check brush to see if it moves smoothly.
+If brush holder is bent, replace it; if sliding surface is dirty, clean.

YOKE CHECK
Magnet is secured to yoke by bonding agent. Check magnet to see
that it is secured to yoke and for any cracks. Replace malfunction-
ing parts as an assembly.
CAUTION:
Do not clamp yoke in a vice or strike it with a hammer.
ARMATURE CHECK
1. Continuity test (between two segments side by side).
+No continuity ... Replace.
2. Insulation test (between each commutator bar and shaft).
+Continuity exists. ... Replace.
3. Check commutator surface.
+Rough ... Sand lightly with No. 500 - 600 emery paper.
4. Check diameter of commutator.
Commutator minimum diameter:
Refer to SDS (EL-51).
+Less than speci®ed value ... Replace.

Assembly
Apply high-temperature grease to lubricate the bearing, gears and
frictional surface when assembling the starter.
Carefully observe the following instructions.
PINION PROTRUSION LENGTH ADJUSTMENT
Clearance ``!''
With pinion driven out by magnetic switch, push pinion back to
remove slack and measure clearance ``!'' between the front edge
of the pinion and the pinion stopper.
Clearance ``!'':
Refer to SDS (EL-51).
Movement ``!''
Compare movement ``!'' in height of pinion when it is pushed out
with magnetic switch energized and when it is pulled out by hand
until it touches stopper.
Movement ``!'':
Refer to SDS (EL-51).

Trouble Diagnoses
Before conducting an alternator test, make sure that the battery is fully charged. A 30-volt voltmeter and suit-
able test probes are necessary for the test. The alternator can be checked easily by referring to the Inspec-
tion Table.
+Before starting, inspect the fusible link.
+Use fully charged battery.

Note:
+If the inspection result is OK even though the charging system is malfunctioning, check the B ter-
minal connection. (Check the tightening torque.)
+When ®eld circuit is open, check condition of rotor coil, rotor slip ring and brush. If necessary,
replace faulty parts with new ones.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR
The IC regulator warning function activates to illuminate ``CHARGE'' warning lamp, if any of the following
symptoms occur while alternator is operating:
+Excessive voltage is produced.
+No voltage is produced.

Removal and Installation
CAUTION:
+Start service operation after removing the negative termi-
nal from the battery.
+Also remove the undercover, if equipped, before servicing.
Disassembly
REAR COVER
CAUTION:
Rear cover may be hard to remove because a ring is used to
lock outer race of rear bearing. To facilitate removal of rear
cover, heat just bearing box section with a 200W soldering
iron.
Do not use a heat gun, as it can damage diode assembly.

+Do not lubricate rear bearing outer race.
Inspection
ROTOR CHECK
1. Resistance test
Resistance: Refer to SDS (EL-56).
+Not within the speci®ed values ... Replace rotor.
2. Insulator test
+Continuity exists ... Replace rotor.
3. Check slip ring for wear.
Slip ring minimum outer diameter:
Refer to SDS (EL-56).
+Not within the speci®ed values ... Replace rotor.
BRUSH CHECK
1. Check smooth movement of brush.
+Not smooth ... Check brush holder and clean.
2. Check brush for wear.
+Replace brush if it is worn down to the limit line.
STATOR CHECK
1. Continuity test
+No continuity ... Replace stator.
2. Ground test
+Continuity exists ... Replace stator.
