Alternator stator coil check
Disconnect the alternator wires (fig. 5).
Remove the alternator stator coil.
Check for continuity between the two wires of the alternator stator coil (fig. 6).
Check for continuity between the wires of the alternator stator rectifier (fig. 7).
Check if there is no continuity, on the contrary, between the above mentioned
stator coil wires and ground (figs. 8-9).
In case of no continuity between the stator coil and rectifier wires or if, vice
versa, in case of continuity between wires and ground, the stator itself should
be replaced.
