8.2 Low rpm combined with high current draw is an indication of excessive friction caused by tight, dirty, or worn bearings; a bent armature
shaft; a shorted armature; or shorted field coils.
8.3 Failure to operate with high current draw indicates a direct ground in the terminal or fields, or "frozen" bearings.
8.4 Failure to operate with no current draw indicates an open field circuit, open armature coils, broken brush springs, worn brushes, high
insulation between the commutator bars, or other causes which would prevent good contact between the brushes and the commutator.
8.5 Low no-load speed and low current indicate high internal resistance and high current draw, which usually mean shorted fields.
9. Remove the solenoid assembly screws.
