      1. Connect terminal 1 (B) to the battery positive (+) terminal, and terminal 2 (E) to the battery negative (-) terminal.
      2. Check that the motor rotates.
        WARNING:

        If the compressor is shorted, locked, or has a similar type of malfunction, a large amount of voltage will be flowing. Therefore, if the motor does not operate, immediately stop this inspection.

        NOTE:

        Do not allow the motor to operate for approximately 60 seconds or more.

        OK

        Motor operates
