2. Check that the amount of valve lift is at the
standard value when the water is at the
full-opening temperature.
NOTE: Measure the valve height when the
thermostat is fully closed, and use this
measurement to compare the valve height when
the thermostat is fully open.
Standard value:
100°C <4G1>
95°C <4G6>
Amount of valve lift: 8.5 mm or more

WAVEFORM CHECK USING AN OSCILLOSCOPEM1161001200124
MEASUREMENT METHODConnect the oscilloscope special patterns pick-up to
the alternator "B" terminal.
STANDARD WAVEFORM
Observation Conditions
NOTE:
The voltage waveform of the alternator "B" terminal
can undulate as shown in the illustration. This
waveform is produced when the regulator operates
according to fluctuations in the alternator load (current), and is normal for the alternator. In addition,
when the voltage waveform reaches an excessively
high value (approximately 2 V or higher at idle), it
often indicates an open circuit due to a brown fuse
between alternator "B" terminal and battery, but not a
defective alternator.

2. Measure the diameter of the commutator.
Standard value: 29.4 mm
Limit: 28.8 mm
3. Measure the depth of the undercut between
segments.
Standard value: 0.5 mm
Limit: 0.2 mm
BRUSH HOLDER
Push the brush into the brush holder to make sure
that the spring is working on the brush.
If the spring is not working, replace the brush holder.
OVERRUNNING CLUTCH
1. Make sure that the pinion cannot be turned
counterclockwise and can be turned clockwise
freely.
2. Check the pinion for abnormal ware and damage.
BRUSHES
1. Check the commutator contacting surface of each
brush for abnormal roughness. Also check the
height of the brush. Replace the brush holder if
the height is lower than the limit.
Limit: 7.0 mm
2. When the contact surface of the brush is rectified
or the brush holder is replaced, recondition the
contact surface with sandpaper wrapped around
the commutator.
ARMATURE COIL
1. Check the armature coil for short circuit as
