Kia Optima: Inspection
Armature Inspection
And Test |
2. |
Disassemble the starter as shown at the beginning
of this procedure. |
3. |
Inspect the armature for wear or damage from contact
with the permanent magnet. If there is wear or damage, replace the armature.
|
4. |
Check the commutator (A) surface. If the surface
is dirty or burnt, resurface with emery cloth or a lathe within the
following specifications, or recondition with #500 or #600 sandpaper
(B).
|
5. |
Measure the commutator (A) runout.
A. |
If the commutator runout is within the service
limit, check the commutator for carbon dust or brass chips between
the segments. |
B. |
If the commutator run out is not within the
service limit, replace the armature. |
Commutator runoutStandard (New): 0.02mm (0.0007in.) max
Service limit: 0.05mm (0.0020in.)
|
|
6. |
Check the mica depth (A). If the mica is too high
(B), undercut the mica with a hacksaw blade to the proper depth. Cut
away all the mica (C) between the commutator segments. The undercut
should not be too shallow, too narrow, or v-shaped (D).
Commutator mica
depthStandard (New) : 0.7 ~ 0.9mm (0.0276 ~ 0.0354in)
Limit : 0.4mm (0.0157 in.)
|
|
7. |
Check for continuity between the segments of the
commutator. If an open circuit exists between any segments, replace
the armature.
|
8. |
Check with an ohmmeter that no continuity exists
between the commutator (A) and armature coil core (B), and between the
commutator and armature shaft (C). If continuity exists, replace the
armature.
|
Inspect Starter Brush
Brushes that are worm out, or oil-soaked, should be replaced.
Starter Brush Holder Test
Check that there is no continuity between the (-) plate (A)
and (+) brush holder (B). If there is continuity, replace the brush holder assembly.
Inspect Overrunning Clutch
1. |
Slide the overrunning clutch along the shaft. Replace it if does not slide smoothly. |
2. |
Rotate the overrunning clutch both ways. Does it lock in one direction and rotate smoothly
in reverse? If it does not lock in either direction or it locks in both
directions, replace it.
|
3. |
If the starter drive gear is worn or damaged, replace
the overrunning clutch assembly. (the gear is not available separately). Check the condition of the flywheel or torque converter
ring gear if the starter drive gear teeth are damaged. |
Cleaning
1. |
Do not immerse parts in cleaning solvent. Immersing
the yoke assembly and/or armature will damage the insulation. Wipe these
parts with a cloth only. |
2. |
Do not immerse the drive unit in cleaning solvent.
The overrun clutch is pre-lubricated at the factory and solvent will
wash lubrication from the clutch. |
3. |
The drive unit may be cleaned with a brush moistened
with cleaning solvent and wiped dry with a cloth. |
