Bench Testing: Stator

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1999 Acura SLX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Check resistance between stator leads. See Fig 1. If resistance is greater than one ohm, replace stator. Check resistance between stator leads and coil core. If resistance is less than 1000 ohms, replace stator.
