Generator Assembly: Inspection: Rotor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Measure the resistance between the two slip rings of the rotor coil to check the continuity between them.
Replace the rotor if the resistance is not within the standard value range.

Standard value: 2.0 - 2.3 Ω
Check the continuity between the slip rings and core.
