Bench Testing: Brushes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2004 Honda Odyssey, 2003 Honda Odyssey, 2002 Honda Odyssey, 2001 Honda Odyssey, and 2000 Honda Odyssey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Measure the length of both brushes with vernier calipers. See Fig 1. If either is shorter than the service limit, replace the brush holder assembly. If the brush length is OK, go to ROTOR SLIP RING .
