Stator Ground Test

  1. Inspect stator laminations closely for signs of overheating. A burnt spot usually indicates shorted stator windings. Remove stator from alternator. Set ohmmeter to X1000 scale. Connect one ohmmeter probe to one stator lead. Connect other probe to stator core. Ohmmeter should indicate no continuity.
  2. If meter indicates any continuity, stator winding is shorted to core, and must be replaced. Repeat test for each stator lead. DO NOT touch probes or stator leads, or an incorrect reading will result.
