Bench Testing: Stator
- Place ohmmeter on lowest scale. Compare resistance values of wires taken between 1/2, 1/3 and 2/3 with ohmmeter. They must be identical. If resistance is incorrect, stator has open or shorted windings and must be replaced.
- Place ohmmeter on x1000 scale. Connect ohmmeter between stator core and each stator lead. No continuity should exist. If continuity exists, stator is grounded and must be replaced.
