Disassembly Service Points

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

CAUTION: DO NOT insert a screwdriver too deep. The stator coil will be damaged.

A) Front Bracket Assembly Removal - Insert a flat-tipped screwdriver between the front bracket assembly and the stator core, and pry it downward to separate the stator and front bracket assembly. See Fig 1 .

CAUTION: Make sure not to damage the rotor.

B) Generator Pulley Removal - Set the pulley upward, clamp the rotor in a vise, and remove the pulley.

CAUTION: Check that the heat from the soldering iron is not transmitted to the diode for a long time.

CAUTION: Use care that no undue force is exerted to leads of diodes.

C) Stator Removal - Using a soldering iron (180-250W) to unsolder the stator. This work should complete within approximately 4 seconds to prevent heat from transferring to the diode. When removing the rectifier from the regulator assembly, unsolder the points soldered on the rectifier. See Fig 2 .
