Inspection [2.0L Engine Non-Turbo, 2.4L Engine]

INSPECTION [2.0L ENGINE NON-TURBO, 2.4L ENGINE]

PULLEY







Lock the pulley when rotating it clockwise. Check that the pulley rotates smoothly when rotating it counterclockwise.

CAUTION: Locking the one-way clutch might cause the damaged drive belt and an abnormal noise.

ROTOR







1. Measure the resistance between the two slip rings of the rotor coil to check the continuity between them.
Replace the rotor if the resistance is not within the standard value range.

Standard value: 2.1 - 2.4 Ohms

2. Check the continuity between the slip rings and core.







3. If continuity is present, replace the rotor.

STATOR







1. Check the continuity between coil leads.
If there is no continuity, replace the stator.







2. Check the continuity between coil and core.
If there is continuity, replace the stator.

RECTIFIER ASSEMBLY







1. Check the condition of the (+) heat sink by checking the continuity between the (+) heat sink and each of the stator coil lead connecting terminals.
If the continuity is present for both terminals, or if no continuity is present for both terminals, the diode is shorted. Replace the rectifier assembly.







2. Check the condition of the (-) heat sink by checking the continuity between the (-) heat sink and each of the stator coil lead connecting terminals.
If the continuity is present for both terminals, or if no continuity is present for both terminals, the diode is shorted. Replace the rectifier assembly.

BRUSH







1. Measure the length of the protrusion of the brush. Replace the brush if the protrusion length is shorter than the limit.

Limit: 2 mm (0.08 inch) minimum

2. Unsolder the lead of the brush. The brush will come out, becoming ready for removal.







3. Install a new brush by pushing it into the holder as shown in the drawing and soldering the lead.
