Start Motor Brushes & Springs Test

  1. Connect one ohmmeter lead to positive brush holder and other lead to negative brush holder. If test needle moves, brush holder assembly is shorted and must be replaced.
  2. Check brush length. If less than specification, replace brushes. Check spring tension. Spring tension should be 37-48 ozs. (1050-1350 g). Brushes must move freely in holders.
