Measure the brush length. lf it is less than the servicelimit, replace the armature housing and brush holder as-
semoty.

NOTE: To seat new brushes atter installing them in their
holders, slip a strip of # 5O0 or # 600 sandpaper, with
the grit side up, over the commutator and smoothly ro-
tate the armature, The contact surface of the brushes
will be sanded to the same contour as the commutator.
1.Check that there is no continuity between the O and
O brush holders. lf there is continuitv, replace the
brush holder assembly.
O BRUSH I{OLDERO BRUSH HOLDER
Insert the brush into the brush holder, and bring the
brush into contact with the commutator, then attach
a spring scale to the spring. Measure the spring ten-
saon at the moment the spring lifts ott the brush.

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. Beplace the arma-
ture.

between the commutator and armature shaft. lf
there is continuity, replace the armature.

RectifierTest
DENSO:
NOTE: The diodes are designed to allow current to pass
in one direction while blocking it in the opposite direc-
tion. Each diode must be tested tor continuity in both
directions with an ohmmeter that has diode checking
capability. Since the alternator rectifier is made up ot
eight diodes (four pairs), there are a total of 16 checks.
'1. Check for continuity in each direction between the
B and P terminals, and between the E (ground) and
P terminals of each diode pair. All diodes should have
continuity in only one direction.
lf any of the eight diodes fails, replace the recti{ier
assembly. iDiodes are not available separately.)

Interlock System
Component Location Index
Description
The car is equipped with the lollowing devices to plevent inadvertent shifiing:
a A/T selector with shift lock
a Key cylinder with interlocked ignition key
Shift Lock Svstem:
The shift lock system prevents the shilt lever trom moving to @ or [6ol from the p position unless the brake pedal
is depressed and the accelerator is in its rest position.
NOTE:
a The shift lever cannot be shifted when the brake pedal and the accelerator are depressed at the same time.
a In case of system malfunction, the shift lever can be released by pushing a key into the release slot near the shift lever.
SRS components are located in this area. Review the SRS component locations, precautions, and procedures in the SRS
section (23) belore performing repairs or service.
