Magnetic Switch Return Test

Magnetic Switch Return Test:

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

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

3. Pull pinion out and release. If pinion quickly returns to its original position, everything is in order. If it doesn't, replace magnetic switch.

CAUTION: When pulling out the pinion, be careful not to have your finger pinched.
