Yaris L4-1.5L (1NZ-FE) (2007)
3. Connect the battery and ammeter to the starter as shown in the illustration.
4. Check that the ammeter indicates the specified current.
Standard current: 90A or less at 11.5V
2. INSPECT STARTER ARMATURE ASSEMBLY
a. Check the commutator for open circuits.
1. Using an ohmmeter, check the resistance between the segments of the commutator.
Standard resistance: Below 1 Ohm
If the result is not as specified, replace the starter armature assembly.
b. Check the commutator for ground.
1. Using an ohmmeter, check the resistance between the commutator and the armature core.
Standard resistance: 10 k ohms or higher
If the result is not as specified, replace the starter armature assembly.
c. Check the commutator surface for dirt and burns. If the surface is dirty or burnt, restore it with sandpaper (No.400) or a lathe.
