1) Check continuity across rotor slip rings. Resistance
should be 3-5 ohms. Replace rotor if continuity is not present or
resistance is not within specification.
2) Check continuity between individual slip rings and rotor
shaft. If continuity is present, rotor coil or slip ring is grounded.
Replace rotor.
STATOR
Ensure continuity is not present between stator coil leads
and stator core. Check continuity between leads of stator coil. If
continuity is not present between coil leads, replace stator.
OVERHAUL
Replace brushes if worn to limit line. Limit line is line
closest to rotor contact end of brush. Brushes can be retained in
brush holder while installing rotor by inserting wire into back of
rear housing. See Fig. 3.
