Continuity Test for the Armature
Coil
Use a tester
to
check
for
continuity between par-
allel points on the commutator.
If
there is conti-
nuity, the armature is good.
No
continuity: (broken coil)
Replace the armature unit.
3)
Insulation Test for the Armature Coil
Use a tester to check for continuity between a
point
on
