Bench Testing: Stator

Using ohmmeter, check continuity between stator leads. See Fig 1. Continuity should be present between all stator leads. Check continuity between stator leads and coil core. Continuity should not be present between stator leads and coil core. If continuity is not as specified, replace stator.
