Starter Motor

Check Pinion Projection Length

1. Connect the positive (+) lead from a battery to

the “S” terminal.

2. Connect the negative (-) lead to the “M”

terminal.

3. Lightly pull the pinion away from the gear

housing.

4. Turn the switch ON and measure the pinion

moving distance L in the thrust direction
(Figure 10-35). Perform this test within 10
seconds.

Figure 10-35

See Starter Motor Specifications on page 10-6 for
service limit.

5. If the measured L dimension is outside the

standard range, adjust the dust covers to obtain
the standard range. Dust covers
(Figure 10-36, (1)) are available in 0.020 in.
(0.5 mm) and 0.031 in. (0.8 mm) thicknesses.

No-Load Test

Test the characteristics of the starter motor by
performing a no load test.

1. Secure the starting motor in a vise or other

suitable fixture.

2. Connect an ammeter (Figure 10-37, (1)) in

series between the battery positive (+) terminal
(Figure 10-37, (2)) and the main positive (+)
terminal (Figure 10-37, (3)) on the starter
motor.

Note: The ammeter and all wire leads used in

this test must have a capacity equal to or
greater than the amperage draw
specification for the starter motor being
tested.

3. Connect a wire lead between the mounting

base of the starter motor (Figure 10-37, (4))
and the battery negative terminal
(Figure 10-37, (5)).

4. Connect a voltmeter (Figure 10-37, (7)) to the

battery negative (-) terminal (Figure 10-37, (5))
and the main positive (+) battery terminal
(Figure 10-37, (3)) on the starter motor.
