(Refer to Figure 31)

1. Disconnect wires from motor switch.

NOTE: Refer to appropriatewiring diagram when

rewiring motor switch.

2. Put test meter probes on terminals 4 and 5. Meter

should read approximately one on Ohm scale.

3. Put test meter probes on terminal 4 and motor

frame. Meter should register “no reading” or

infinite.

4. Put test meter probes on terminal 5 and motor

frame. Meter should register “no reading” or

infinite.

5. Put test meter probes on terminals 4 and 6. Meter

should register “no reading” or infinite. Manually

flex the centrifugal switch in motor and meter

should read approximately two on Ohm scale.

6. Put test meter probes on terminals 1 and 2. Meter
