Book Excerpt: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

MAGNETIC SWITCH A solenoid switch is used to supply the heavy current for operating the starting motor. When the push button starting switch is pressed, the solenoid coil is energized and becomes an electromagnet that draws the iron core to it. The circuit is completed when the contacts meet. A return spring pulls the iron core back to break the circuit when the push switch is released.

1. Remove the left side cover and disconnect the lead from the starting motor (Figure 35). Remove the cover.
2. Depress the starter switch and listen for the click of the iron core contacting the coil.
3. Check the condition of the contact points and dress with a point file if they are pitted or burned.
