Starting System
Starter Test (cont'dl
Check lor Wear and D8mage
The starter should crank the engine smoothly and
steadily. lf the staner engages, but cranks the engine
erratically, remove it, and inspect the starter drive gear
and torque converter ring gear or flywheel ring gear for
oamage.
Check the drive gear overrunning clutch for binding or
slipping when the armature is rotated with the drive
gear held. lf damaged, replace the gears.
Check Cranking Voltage and Current Draw
Cranking voltage should be no less than 8.7 volts on Ay'T
models, and 8.0 volts on M/T moders.
Current draw should be no more than 230 amperes on
A,/T models, and 200 amperes on M/T models.
lf cranking voltage is too low, or current draw too high,
check for:
. dead or low battery.
a open circuit in starter armature commutator seg,
ments.
. starter armature dragging.
. shorted armature winding.
. excessive drag in engine.
Check Cranking rpm
Engine speed during cranking should be above 100 rpm.
lf speed is too low, check for:
a loose baftery or starter terminals.
. excesslvely worn staner brushes
. open circuit in commutator segments.
. dirty or damaged helical splines or drive gear.
a defective drive gear overrunning clutch.
Check Starter Disengagement
With the shift lever in @ or @ position (A,iT) or with the
clutch pedal depressed {M/T). turn the ignition switch to
START (lll). and release to ON (ll).
The starter drive gear should disengage from the torque
converter ring gear or flywheel ring gear when you
release the key.
lf the drive gear hangs up on the torque converter ring
gear or flywheel ring gear, check for
. solenoid plunger and switch malfunction.
. dirty drive gear assembly or damaged overrunning
clutch.
Starter Solenoid Test
1. Check the hold-in coil for continuity between the S
terminal and lhe armature housing (ground). The
coil is OK if there is continuity.

5. Check the mica depth. lf necessary, undercut the
mica with a hacksaw blade to achieve proper depth.
lf the service limit cannot be maintained, reDlace
the armature.

Commutator Mica Depth
Standard (Nsw): 0.5 - 0.8 mm 10.02 - 0.03 inl
Servico Limit: 0.2 mm (0.008 in)
Check for continuity between the segments of the
commutator. lf an open circuit exists between any
segments. replace the armature.

7. Place the armature on an armature tester. Hold a
hacksaw blade on the armature core.
lf the blade is attracted to the core or vibrates while
the core is turned. the armature is shorted. Replace
the armature.
8. With an ohmmeter, check that no continuity exists
between the commutator and armature coil core,
and between the commutator and armature shaft. lf
there is continuity. replace the armature,

NOTE:
. See section 11 when the malfunction indicator lamp(MlL) comes on.
. Perform an input test for the ignition control module(lCM) after finishing the fundamental tests for the
ignition system and the fuel and emissions systems.
. '97 -'98 models: The tachometer should operate nor-
mally if the ICM is OK.
L Remove the distributor ignition (Dl) cap, the distrib-
utor ignition (Dl) rotor, and the leak cover.
2. Disconnect the wires from the lCM.

Turn the ignition switch ON {ll). Check for voltage
between the BLK,^/EL wire and body ground. There
should be battery voltage.
. lf there is no battery voltage, check the BLK/rEL
wire betlveen the ignition switch and the lclvl.
. lf there is baftery voltage, go to step 4.
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll). Check for voltage
between the WHT/BLU wire and body ground. There
should be battery voltage.
. lf there is no batteryvoltage, check:- ignition coil.- WHT/BLU wire between the ICM and ignition
corl.
. lf there is battery voltage, go to step 5,
'97 model: Disconnect the ECM/PCM connector A(32P). Check for continuity on the YEL/GRN wire
between the ICM and ECM/PCM. There should be
continuity.'98 - 00 models: Disconnect the ECM,PCM connector
B (25P). Check for continuity on the YEUGRN wire
between the ICM and ECM/PCM. There should be
continuity.
Check for continuity on the YEUGRN wire to body
ground. There should be no continuity.
Reconnect the ECM/PClvl connector.
'97 -'98 models: Check for continuity on the BLU
wire between the test tachometer connector and the
lCM. There should be continuity.
'97 -'98 models: Check for continuity on the BLU

lgnition Wire Inspection and Test
1.Carefully remove the ignition wires by pulling on
the rubber boots. Do not bend the wires; you might
break them inside.
Check the condition of the ignition wire terminals. lf
any terminal is corroded, clean it, and if it is broken
or distorted, replace the ignition wire.
IGNITION WIRE
Connect the ohmmeter probes and measure resis-
tance.

Spark Plug Inspection
Inspect the electrodes and ceramic insulator for:
. lmproper gap. Oil-fouling. Carbon deposits. Cracked centerelectrode insulator
Burned or worn electrodes may be caused by:
. Advanced ignition timing
. Loose spark plug
. Plug heat range too hot
. Insufficient cooling
Fouled plug may be caused by:
. Retarded ignition timing
. Oil in combustion chamber
. Incorrect spark plug gap
. Plug heat range too cold
. Excessive idling/low speed runnang
. Clogged air cleaner element
. Deteriorated ignition wires

2. Check the electrode gaP.
. Adjust the gap with a suitable gapping tool.
Electrode Gap
Standard 1.1 3 ' mm (0.043 Loo. in)

Rotor Slip Ring Test
1. Check the resistance between the slip rings.
There should be 1.8 - 3.0 ohms.
. lf resistance meets the specification, go to step 2
. lf resistance does not meet the specification,
replace the alternator.
SLIP RINGS
Check that there is no continuity between the slip
rings and the rotor or rotor shaft.
lf the rotor fails either continuity check, replace the
alternator.
