Pull-out test

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
NOTE:
  • Depending on the battery charge condition, the starter motor pinion may rotate while in an extended state. This is due to current flowing to the starter motor through the pull-in coil to turn the starter motor, and does not indicate an abnormality.
  1. Verify that the starter motor pinion is extended while battery positive voltage is connected to terminal S and the starter body is grounded.
    • If the starter motor pinion is not extended, repair or replace the starter.
