Magnetic Switch Hold-In Test

Magnetic Switch Hold-In Test:

1. Disconnect field coil wire from M-terminal of magnetic switch.
2. Connect a 12 V battery between S-terminal and body.

CAUTION: This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10 seconds) to prevent coil from burning.

3. Pull out the pinion by hand until it comes into contact with the pinion stopper.
4. If pinion remains out, everything is in order. If pinion moves in, hold-in circuit is open. Replace magnetic switch.
