4) Check slip rings for roughness or scoring. If rough or
scored, replace the rotor.
Using a vernier caliper, measure the slip ring
diameter. If the diameter is less than minimum,
replace the rotor.
Slip ring diameter
Standard: 14.2 – 14.4 mm (0.560 – 0.566 in.)
Limit: 12.8 mm (0.503 in.)
Stator
1) Using an ohmmeter, check all leads for continuity. If
there is no continuity, replace the stator.
2) Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity
between coil leads and stator core. If there is
continuity, replace the stator.
Brush and Brush Holder
Check each brush for wear by measuring its length as
shown. If the brush is found worn down to service limit,
replace the brush.
Exposed brush length “a”
Standard: 10.5 mm (0.41 in.)
Limit: 1.5 mm (0.05 in.)Rectifier
1) Using an ohmmeter, connect one tester probe to the
“B” terminal (1) and the other to each rectifier
terminal (2).
2) Reverse the polarity of the tester probes and repeat
Step 1).
3) Check that one shows continuity and the other
shows no continuity.
If there is continuity, replace the rectifier.
4) Using an ohmmeter, connect one tester probe to
each negative terminal (1) and the other to each
rectifier terminal (2).
5) Reverse the polarity of the tester probes and repeat
Step 4).
6) Check that one shows continuity and the other
shows no continuity.
If there is continuity, replace the rectifier.

Front Strut Assembly Disassembly and
Reassembly
S6RW0D2206004
Disassembly
1) Attach special tool (A) to coil spring as shown. Turn
special tool bolts alternately until coil spring tension
is released. Rotate the strut around its axis to
confirm that the coil spring is released or not.
Special tool
(A): 09943–25010
2) While keeping coil spring compressed with special
tools, remove strut support lower nut with hexagon
wrench as shown figure.
3) Disassemble front strut assembly.Reassembly
For assembly, reverse disassembly procedure, noting
the following instructions.
1) Compress coil spring with special tool (A) until total
length becomes about 280 mm (11.0 in.) as shown.
Length
“a”: 280 mm (11.0 in.)
2) Install compressed coil spring to strut, and place coil
spring end (2) onto spring lower seat (1) as shown.
NOTE
End of coil spring must not interfere with
step of spring lower seat.

3) Install bump stopper and strut dust cover onto strut
rod. For installing direction, refer to the figure in
“Front Strut Assembly Components”.
4) Pull strut rod as far up as possible and use care not
to allow it to retract into strut.
5) Install spring seat on coil spring and then spring
upper seat (1) aligning “OUT” mark (3) on spring
upper seat and center of strut bracket (2).
6) Install bearing (3), strut support (2) and strut support
lower nut (1) in this sequence.
Tighten strut support lower nut (1) to specified
torque.
When tightening strut support lower nut, hold stud
with hexagon wrench.
Tightening torque
Strut support lower nut (a): 55 N·m (5.5 kgf-m,
40.0 lb-ft)Front Strut Assembly CheckS6RW0D2206005
• Inspect strut for oil leakage, damage or deformation.
If defect is found, replace strut as an assembly unit,
because it can not be disassembled.
• Inspect strut function referring to the following
procedures:
1) Check and adjust tire pressures as specified.
2) Bounce vehicle body up and down 3 or 4 times
continuously by pushing front end of the vehicle side
body to check strut.
Also, note how many times vehicle body rebounds to
stop after force application.
3) Repeat the same procedure to the other strut to
confirm that the both side struts equally respond.
If conditions of struts are in doubt, compare them with
known-good vehicle or strut.
• Inspect bearing for wear, abnormal noise or gripping.
If defective, replace.
• Inspect coil spring seat for cracks or deformation.
If defective, replace.
• Inspect bump stopper for deterioration.
If defective, replace.
• Inspect rebound stopper and strut mount for wear,
cracks or deformation.
If defective, replace.
