Bench Testing: Stator

  1. Place ohmmeter on lowest scale. Compare resistance values between wires 1 and 2, wires 1 and 3, and wires 2 and 3. Resistance values must be identical. If resistance is incorrect, stator has open or shorted windings and must be replaced.
  2. Place ohmmeter on X1000 scale. Connect ohmmeter between stator core and each stator lead. Continuity should not exist. If continuity exists, stator is grounded and must be replaced.
