Stator Coil Grounded Test
- This test is to determine if stator coil is operating properly. Remove stator from alternator. Set ohmmeter in "x1000" range.
- Connect one ohmmeter probe to one stator lead and other probe to stator laminated core. Ohmmeter reading should be infinity.
- If meter needle moves, stator winding is shorted to core and stator must be replaced. Repeat test for each stator lead.
NOTE:
Do not touch hands to metal probes or to stator lead, or incorrect reading will result.
