You Testament call for a admirable, firm vice.
Testing electrical devices on the workbench can be deficient whether instructions are not followed completely. The Employee must find out the functions of a solenoid and starter Press-stud and be able to wire them in accommodation. The Employee besides needs an perceptive of the conceit of an in-line fuse holder and its overhaul and must acquire the command to advantage electrical and mechanical tools. Wiring trial components in series must as well be performed. This disposition is for bench testing starters sole, not their solenoids.
Instructions
1. Situate on the safety glasses. Place on the weighty gloves. Accommodation the 12-volt battery in a secure levy on the bench. Habitat the starter in a bulky, metal-working vice mounted on top of your workbench with the two barn door certain and con terminals facing up.
2. Exercise spade connectors for all connections. Connect a quantity 6 wire lingering Sufficiently to arrive the battery to the denial terminal on the starter or the starter frame using a comprehensive spade connector. Connect the other end of the wire to the negative post on the battery in the same manner. Do not try to use the solenoid mounted on the battery, if one is present, and make sure all wires are removed from it.
3. Mount the solenoid on the test bench. Connect a number 6 wire long enough to reach the solenoid to the positive terminal on the starter using a large spade connector. Connect the other end to either large terminal on the solenoid using a large spade connector. Connect a number 6 wire long enough to reach the battery to the other large terminal on the solenoid in the same manner.
4. Place the 30-amp fuse in the fuse holder.7. Check that all connections are tight and in the right place. Check the vise to be sure the starter is firmly held in place.
Mount the starter button on the test bench. Connect a number 12 wire long enough to reach the starter button to the small positive terminal on the solenoid using a small spade connector. Connect the other end to either terminal on the starter button using a small spade connector.
6. Connect a number 12 wire long enough to reach the battery to the other terminal on the starter button in the same manner. Connect an in-line fuse holder to the end of the wire from the starter button. Connect the other end of the in-line fuse holder to the positive terminal on the battery. Connect the number 6 wire from the solenoid to the positive terminal on the battery. Connect a number 12 wire to the small negative terminal on the solenoid using a small spade connector. Connect the other end to the negative terminal on the battery using a large spade connector.5.
Push the starter button, which will operate the solenoid, which will in turn operate the starter being tested.
