SYSTEM TESTS 

STARTER PERFORMANCE TEST 

1. Connect the battery to the starter by using as heavy a wire as possible (preferably equivalent to the wire 

used for the vehicle). To avoid damaging the starter, never leave the battery connected for more than 10 
seconds. If the starter pinion moves out, it is working properly. See Fig. 6 .  

2. Disconnect the battery from the body. See Fig. 7 . If the pinion retracts immediately, it is working 

properly.  

3. Clamp the starter firmly in a vise.  

4. Connect the starter to the battery, and confirm that the motor starts and keeps rotating. See Fig. 8 .  

5. If the electric current and motor speed meet the specifications when the battery voltage is at 11.5 V, the 

starter is working properly. See STARTER PERFORMANCE TEST SPECIFICATIONS .
