2. Check the continuity between the negative rectifier and the
stator coil lead connection terminal with a tester. If there is
continuity between the terminals, the diode is grounded, so
replace the rectifier.
3. Check the continuity of the three diodes by connecting an
ohmmeter to both ends of each diode. If there is continuity
between the directions, or if there is no continuity, the diode
is damaged, so replace the rectifier.
.
BRUSH CHECK
1. Replace the brush if the brush protrusion length shown in
the illustration is below the minimum limit value.
Minimum limit: 2 mm (0.08 inch)
2. The brush can be removed by unsoldering the brush lead
wire.
3. When installing a new brush, push the brush in to the brush
holder, and solder the lead wire.

COMMUTATOR CHECK
1. Place the armature on a pair of V-blocks, and check the
deflection by using a dial gauge.
Standard value: 0.05 mm (0.002 inch)
Limit: 0.1 mm (0.004 inch)
2. Check the outer diameter of the commutator.
Standard value: 29.4 mm (1.16 inches)
Minimum limit: 28.8 mm (1.13 inches)
3. Check the depth of the undercut between segments.
Standard value: 0.5 mm (0.02 inch)
Minimum limit: 0.2 mm (0.008 inch)
.
BRUSH CHECK
1. Check the brush for roughness of the surface that contacts
the commutator and check the brush length. Replace the
brush holder if this measurement exceeds the limit.
Minimum limit:
7.0 mm (0.28 inch)
2. If the contacting surface has been corrected or the brush
has been replaced, correct the contacting surface by
winding sandpaper around the commutator.

The windshield and rear window glass are attached
by an urethane-base adhesive to the window frame.
This adhesive provides improved glass holding and
sealing, and also gives body openings a greater
structural strength.

14.Remove the radiator cap after the engine has cooled, and
pour in coolant up to the brim. Reinstall the cap.
Do not overfill the radiator condenser tank assembly.
15.Add coolant to the radiator condenser tank assembly
between the "FULL" and "LOW" mark if necessary.
13. COOLANT HOSES (RADIATOR HOSE,
HEATER HOSE) (INSPECT)
M1001009700034
Inspect the surface of radiator hoses and heater hoses for heat
and mechanical damage. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking,
tears, cuts, abrasions and excessive swelling indicate deterio-
ration of the rubber.
14. DISC BRAKE PADS, ROTORS (INSPECT FOR
WEAR)
M1001003200291
Check for fluid contamination and wear. Replace the complete
set of pads if any one pad is defective.
Thickness of lining
Minimum limit: 2.0 mm
The pads for the right and left wheels should be replaced
at the same time. Never split or intermix brake pad sets. All
four pads must be replaced as a complete set.
15. BRAKE HOSES (CHECK FOR
DETERIORATION OR LEAKS)
M1001003400314
Inspection of brake hoses should be included in all brake ser-
vice operations.
The hoses should be checked for:
1. Incorrect length, severe surface cracking, stretching,
scuffing or worn spots (If the fabric casing of the hoses is
exposed by cracks or abrasion in the rubber hose cover, the
hoses should be replaced. Eventual deterioration of the
hose and possible bursting failure may occur).
2. Incorrect installation, twisting or interference with wheel, tyre
or chassis.
