Bench Testing: Stator

  1. Check stator for short circuits. If one or more coils are burned, stator may be shorted.
  2. Connect 2-5 watt test lamp between stator plates and stator terminal. If lamp lights, insulation between stator winding and stator plates is defective and stator should be replaced.
CAUTION: Use only specified test lamp. Do not use 110 or 220 volt test lamp on this or any other alternator test procedure.
