Typical example of a brush holder test (6) Brush spring (7) Brush holder (8) Brush holder plate |
- Check the brush springs (6) for damage or rust. If necessary, replace the brush springs.
- Place the multimeter in the "20M Ohms" range. Touch one meter lead to each positive brush holder (7) and the other lead to brush holder plate (8). Check the three positive brush holders (7).
- Each multimeter reading should be greater than 100,000 Ohms. A meter reading of "0.10" or a value that is greater is acceptable.
- If the meter reading is less than 100,000 Ohms, the brush holder is grounded. The brush holder must be replaced.
