Figure 11-26. Removal of Drive End Head
Figure 11-27. Removal of End Head Bearing
g. On PA-28R-201 models, to remove the drive end head from the rotor shaft, use a puller that grips on
the bearing retainer plate as shown in Figure 11-26. Do not attempt to remove by supporting the end
head and pressing on the shaft as this may result in distortion of the end head or stripping of the
retainer plate screws. Remove the three retainer plate screws and press the bearing out of the end head.
(Refer to Figure 11-27.) On PA-28R-201T models, support the drive end head and carefully press out
the rotor assembly. Remove the three retainer plate screws and press the bearing from the end head.
(Refer to Figure 11-27.)
11-38. INSPECTION AND TESTING OF COMPONENTS. Upon completion of the disassembly, all parts
should be cleaned and visually inspected for cracks, wear or distortion and any signs of overheating or
mechanical interference.
a.
Rotor: The rotor should be tested for grounded or shorted windings. The ground test can be made with
test probes, connected in series with a 110-volt test lamp, an ohmmeter or any type of continuity tester.
(Refer to Figure 11-28.) There must not be any continuity between the slip rings and the rotor shaft or
poles. To test for shorted turns in the rotor windings, connect a voltmeter, ammeter and rheostat as
shown in Figure 11-29, or use an ohmmeter. Rotor current draw and resistance are listed in the
Alternator Service Test Specifications paragraph. Excessive current draw or a low ohmmeter reading
indicates shorted windings. No current draw or an infinite ohmmeter reading would indicate an open
winding.
b. Rectifiers: A diode rectifier tester will detect and pin point open or shorted rectifiers without going
through the operation of disconnecting the stator leads. However, if a tester is not available, test probes
and a No. 57 bulb, connected in series with a 12-volt battery, can be used in the following manner.
Touch one test probe to a rectifier heat sink and the other test probe to a lead from one of the rectifiers
in that heat sink. Then reverse the position of the leads. The test bulb should light in one direction and
not light in the other direction. If the test bulb lights in both directions, one or more of the rectifiers in
the heat sink is shorted. To pin point the defective rectifier, the stator leads must be disconnected and
the above test repeated on each rectifier. Open rectifiers can only be detected, when using the test bulb,
by disconnecting the stator leads. The test bulb will fail to light in either direction if the rectifier is
open.
