Load Test

Fig. 7 Gear Reduced Permanent Magnet Starter Cranking Circuit Test Connections:

1. Connect test equipment as shown in Fig. 7, ensuring no current is flowing through ammeter and heavy duty carbon pile rheostat portion of circuit.
2. Disconnect push-on ``S'' connector at starter relay, then connect remote control starter switch between positive battery terminal and ``S'' terminal.
3. Using remote starter, crank engine with ignition in the ``Off'' position, then determine exact reading on voltmeter.
4. Stop cranking engine, then reduce resistance of carbon pile until voltmeter indicates same reading as obtained with starter cranking the engine. Ammeter should indicate 140-200 amps.
