Brush & Spring Test
- Connect ohmmeter between positive brush holder and negative brush holder. If ohmmeter indicates continuity, brush holder assembly is shorted and must be replaced.
- Check brush length. See STARTER MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS table. If brush length is less than specification, replace brushes.
- Check spring tension. Spring tension should be 2.0-4.3 lbs. (.91-1.95 kg). Ensure brushes move freely in holders.
