TM 9-2920-225-34  I  I  FRAME 2  1.  2.  3.  4.  CAUTION  Do not use a battery or test lamp to make a continuity  test. Reverse battery connection will burn out diodes  instantly.  Check stator (1) for continuity using multimeter. Touch test probe of  multimeter to each pair of stator leads (2). If there is not continuity between  all three stator leads, generator is not repairable.  Check that stator shroud (3) is not cracked or broken. If shroud is damaged,  generator is not repairable.  NOTE  On ohmmeters that use one 1 l/2-volt dry cell, low  resistance readings will be approximately 20 to 30  ohms. On ohmmeters that use a 3-volt dry cell,  low resistance readings will be approximately 10 to  15 ohms.  Using multimeter, check three positive rectifiers (4) by touching positive  test probe of multimeter to base of rectifier and negative test probe to top  of rectifier. Multimeter must show low resistance. If multimeter does not  show low resistance, get a new rectifier.  Using multimeter, check three negative rectifiers (5) by touching positive  test probe of multimeter to base of rectifier and negative test probe to the  top of rectifier. Multimeter must show low resistance. If multimeter  does not show low resistance, get a new rectifier.  GO TO FRAME 3  TA 103703  2-207
