WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2001 Honda Prelude, 2001 Honda Odyssey, 2001 Honda CR-V, and 2001 Honda Accord. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Using an ohmmeter, check continuity between positive and negative brush holders (brackets). Continuity should not exist. If continuity exists, brush holder assembly is shorted and must be replaced.
- Check brush length and spring tension. If brush length or spring tension is less than specification, replace brushes. See STARTER SPECIFICATIONS . Ensure brushes move freely in holders.
