3-24 Engine Electrical Industrial 1.6L
Starter No Load Test
Tools Required
J 35590 Current Clamp
J 39200 Digital Multimeter, or Equivalent
Notice: Never operate the starter motor more than 15
seconds at a time without pausing in order to allow it to
cool for at least 2 minutes. Overheating will damage the
starter motor.
Important: Verify that the battery is in good condition.
Refer to Battery Check.
1. Disable the fuel system. Refer to Engine
Controls.
2. Calculate the current draw by doing the following:
2.1. Select the 200 amp or the 2000 amp scale
on the J 35590.
2.2. Zero the current clamp.
2.3. Clamp the current clamp to the battery
negative cable.
2.4. Crank the engine and observe the meter
readings. The reading should be 65-95
amps.
If the amperage is over 95 amps, an internal
starter failure may be the cause.
If the amperage is under 65 amps, a battery
cable or connection may be the cause.
Loud Whoop Sound after the Engine Fires
Rumble, Growl, or a Knock
