Solara Coupe L4-2.4L (2AZ-FE) (2007)
c. Check if the hold-in coil has an open circuit.
1. Measure the resistance between terminal 50 and the switch body.
Resistance: Below 2 ohm
If the result is not as specified, replace the magnetic switch assembly.
3. INSPECT STARTER ARMATURE ASSEMBLY
a. Measure if the commutator has an open circuit.
1. Measure the resistance between the segments of the commutator.
Resistance: Below 1 ohm
If the result is not as specified, replace the armature assembly.
b. Check if the commutator is grounded.
1. Measure the resistance between the commutator and armature coil core.
Resistance: 10 kohms or higher
If the result is not as specified, replace the armature assembly.
c. Check the commutator for contamination and burns on its surface.
If the surface is dirty or burnt, correct it with sandpaper (No. 400) or a lathe.
