Exam 6: Starting Systems and Motor Designsstarting System Diagnosis and Service

When servicing the starter system, disconnect the ____ before disconnecting any of the starter circuit's wires or removing the starter motor.

The overrunning clutch protects the armature from:

Technician A says a full battery test series should be done before testing the starting system. Technician B says the internal condition of the engine has little effect on the operation of the starting system. Who is correct?

Technician A says speeding up the armature will result in decreased amperage draw. Technician B says slowing down the starter armature will result in increased amperage draw. Who is correct?

Most starters do not have a provision to adjust the ____ clearance.

Slower-than-normal cranking speed will result in lower-than-normal amperage.

List the seven components of the starting system.

The starting system is designed to change the energy stored in the ____ into mechanical energy.

As the series-wound motor speed increases, the torque output of the motor will ____.

Which of the following represents the correct sequence of steps that may need to be performed when testing a starting system?

What type of starter motor has electrical connections that allow current to pass through the field coils and the armature?

Most noise from starters can be traced to starter drives.

List the four most common starter customer complaints.

Some manufacturers use a gear reduction starter to provide increased ____.

A neutral safety switch will have continuity through it when the transmission is in drive or reverse.

The principle of ____ is used to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy in a starter motor.

Technician A says increasing the amount of current flowing through a conductor will increase the strength of its magnetic field. Technician B says coiling a wire around a soft iron core will increase the strength of its magnetic field. Who is correct?

What are the two circuits of the starter system and how do they operate?

Technician A says the neutral safety switch can apply a ground to the starter relay. Technician B says the neutral safety switch can also control the back-up lights on a vehicle. Who is correct?

What is the name of the moveable component of the starter motor that consists of conductor wound around a laminated iron core?
