Bench Testing: Stator

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Isuzu Trooper and 2001 Isuzu Trooper. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Measure the resistance between respective phases. See Fig 1 .
Measure insulation resistance between stator coil and core with a mega-ohmmeter. If less than standard, replace the coil.
