October 30: LEMON manuals on a temporary server, it is slow and having issues, download the manuals you need! Later in November we will switch back to the fast server.

Preliminary Tests

Disconnect battery negative cable. Remove starter from vehicle. Ensure pinion moves freely on screw shaft. Ensure armature rotates freely by prying pinion with a screwdriver. If armature does not turn freely, disassemble motor. If armature rotates freely, perform STARTER NO-LOAD TEST before disassembly.
