Magnetic Switch Pull-In Test
1. Disconnect field coil wire from M-terminal of magnetic switch.
2. Connect a 12 V battery between S-terminal and M-terminal.
3. Manually pull out the pinion as far as the pinion stopper position.
Caution
This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10 seconds) to prevent coil from burning.
4. If pinion moves out, then pull-in coil is good. If it doesn't, replace magnetic switch.
