Section 149 (Starting System & Charging System (H4SO)): Generator: Inspection: Stator

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Subaru Impreza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Continuity test
Inspect continuity between the stator coil lead wire terminals. If the resistance is 1 MΩ or more, the lead wire is damaged. Replace the stator assembly.

Insulation test

Inspect the continuity between the stator coil stator core and lead wire terminals. If the resistance is 1 Ω or less, the stator coil is grounded. Replace the stator assembly.
