Magnetic Switch Return Test

WARNING: Be careful not to get your fingers caught when pulling out the pinion.
CAUTION: To prevent coil from burning, DO NOT apply voltage to starter assembly for more than 10 seconds.
  1. Disconnect field coil wire from "M" terminal of the magnetic switch.
  2. Connect a 12-volt battery between "S" terminal and "M" terminal.
  3. Pull pinion out and release. If pinion quickly returns to its original position, everything is in order. If it doesn't, replace magnetic switch.
