Starter Armature: Testing and Inspection
Grounded Circuit Test
1. This test will determine if any armature winding insulation has been damaged. Measure for resistance using 73 Digital Multimeter, between the
commutator and the core. Infinite resistance indicates a normal condition; otherwise, replace the starter motor armature.
2. Check for continuity between the commutator and the shaft. Replace the starter motor armature if continuity is found.
