Bench Testing: Stator

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1999 Acura 3.0CL and 1999 Acura 2.3CL. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Using ohmmeter, check continuity between stator leads. See Fig 1. If continuity does not exist, replace stator. Check continuity between stator leads and coil core. If continuity exists, replace stator.
