Measure Commutator Insulation Depth
Measure the depth of the insulating material
(Figure11-14, (1)) between commutator segments
(Figure11-14, (2)) . If the depth measures less than
the limit, use a hacksaw blade (Figure11-14, (3)) to
remove the insulating material until the depth is
within the limit.
A normal commutator condition is indicated in
(Figure11-14, (4)) . An abnormal commutator
condition is indicated in (Figure11-14, (5)) .

Armature Coil Continuity Test
Check for continuity between the commutator
segments using a multimeter
(Figure 11-15) . The
multimeter should indicate continuity.
Figure 11-15
If the multimeter does not indicate continuity,
replace the armature.
Armature Coil Insulation Test
Check for continuity between a commutator
segment and the shaft or armature using a
multimeter
(Figure11-16) . The multimeter should
not indicate continuity.

If the multimeter indicates continuity, replace the
armature.
