1. Disconnect the field coil wire from the M-terminal

of the magnetic switch.

2. Connect a 12-volt battery between the S-terminal

and M-terminal.

CAUTION

This test must be performed quickly (in less than
10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning.
3. Set the switch to "ON", and the pinion will move

out.
