mmobilize the engine by turning off the power
supply to the engine at the main switch (switches) and lock it (them) in the OFF position before
starting work. Set up a warning notice at the engine control point or helm.
As a general rule all service operations must be
carried out with the engine stopped. However,
some work, for example certain adjustments re-
quire that the engine is running when they are
carried out. Approaching an engine which is operating is a safety risk. Loose clothing or long
hair can fasten in rotating parts and cause seri-
ous personal injury. If working in proximity of an
engine which is operating, careless movements
or a dropped tool can result in personal injury.
Take care to avoid contact with hot surfaces (ex-
haust pipes, Turbocharger (TC),

has just been stopped. Reinstall all protective
parts removed during service operations before
starting the engine.

Hot oil can cause burns. Avoid getting hot oil on
the skin. Ensure that the lubrication system is
not under pressure before carrying out any work.
Never start or operate the engine with the oil filler cap removed, otherwise oil could be ejected.
Stop the engine and close the sea cock before
carrying out operations on the engine cooling
system.
Only start the engine in a well-ventilated area. If
operating the engine in an enclosed area ensure that there is exhaust ventilation leading out
of the engine compartment or workshop area to
remove exhaust gases and crankcase ventilation emissions.

Always use protective glasses or goggles when
carrying out work where there is a risk of splin-
ters, grinding sparks, acid splashes or where
other chemicals are used. The eyes are extremely sensitive, an injury could result in blind-
ness!
Avoid getting oil on the skin! Repeated expo-

result in the skin becoming dry. Irritation, dryness and eczema and other skin problems can
then occur. Used oil is more dangerous than
fresh oil from a health aspect. Use protective
gloves and avoid oil soaked clothes and shop
rags.
Wash regularly, especially before eating.
There are special skin creams which counteract
drying out of the skin and make it easier to clean
off dirt after work is completed.
Many chemicals used on the product (for ex-
ample engine and transmission oils, glycol,
gasoline and diesel oil), or chemicals used in
the workshop (for example degreasing agents,
paint and solvents) are dangerous to health.
Read the instructions on the product packaging
carefully! Always follow the safety precautions

Ensure that rags soaked in oil or fuel and used
fuel or oil filters are stored safely. Rags soaked
i
n oil can spontaneously ignite under certain circumstances. Used fuel and oil filters are environmentally dangerous waste and must be de-
posited at an approved site for destruction
together with used lubricating oil, contaminated
fuel, paint remnants, solvent, degreasing agents
and waste from washing parts.
Never expose a battery to naked flame or electrical sparks. Never smoke in proximity to the
batteries. The batteries give off hydrogen gas
during charging which when mixed with air can
form an explosive gas -
i
s easily ignited and highly volatile. Incorrect
connection of the battery can cause a single
spark which is sufficient to cause an explosion
with resulting damage. Do not shift the connec-
tions when attempting to start the engine (spark
risk) and do not lean over any of the batteries.
Always ensure that the Plus (positive) and Mi-
nus (negative) battery leads are correctly in-
stalled on the corresponding terminal posts on
the batteries. Incorrect installation can result in
serious damage to the electrical equipment. Refer to the wiring diagrams.
Always use protective goggles when charging
and handling the batteries. Battery electrolyte
contains sulfuric acid which is highly corrosive.
Should the battery electrolyte come into contact
with unprotected skin wash off immediately us-
i
ng plenty of water and soap. If battery acid
comes in contact with the eyes, immediately
flush with plenty of water and obtain medical as-
sistance at once.
Turn the engine off and turn off the power at the
main
switch(es)before carrying out work on the
electrical system.

Smoking is not to be permitted in the vicinity!
Ensure that the work area is well ventilated and
take the necessary safety precautions before
starting welding or grinding work. Always en-
sure that there are fire extinguishers at hand
when work is being carried out.

Repair instructions and methods
The working methods described in the Workshop Manual apply to work carried out in a workshop. The engine
has been removed from the boat and is installed in an
engine fixture. Unless otherwise stated reconditioning
work which can be carried out with the engine in place
follows the same working method.

are not in any way comprehensive since it is impossible
to predict every circumstance under which service work
or repairs may be carried out. Volvo Penta AB can only
i
ndicate the risks considered likely to occur as a result
of incorrect working methods in a well-equipped workshop using working methods and tools tested by Volvo
Penta AB.
All operations described in the Workshop Manual for
which there are Volvo Penta Special Tools available
assume that these tools are used by the service techni-
cian or person carrying out the repair. Volvo Penta Special Tools have been specifically developed to ensure
as safe and rational working methods as possible. It is
therefore the responsibility of the person or persons us-
i
ng other than Volvo Penta Special Tools or approved
Volvo Penta working methods (as described in a Workshop Manual or Service Bulletin), to acquaint them-
selves of the risk of personal injury or actual mechani
cal damage or malfunction that can result from failing to
use the prescribed tools or working method.
I
n some cases special safety precautions and user in-
structions may be required in order to use the tools and
chemicals mentioned in the Workshop Manual. Always
follow these precautions as there are no specific in-
structions given in the Workshop Manual.
By following these basic recommendations and using
common sense it is possible to avoid most of the risks
i
nvolved in the work. A clean work place and a clean
engine will eliminate many risks of personal injury and
engine malfunction.
Above all when working on the fuel system, engine lubrication system, air intake system, Turbocharger unit,
bearing seals and seals it is extremely important to observe the highest standards of cleanliness and avoid
dirt or foreign objects entering the parts or systems,
since this can result in reduced service life or malfunc-
tions.
Our joint responsibility
Every engine consists of many systems and components that work together. If one component deviates from
the technical specifications this can have dramatic con-
sequences on the environmental impact of the engine
even if it is otherwise in good running order. It is there-
fore critical that the stated wear tolerances are ob-
served, that systems which can be adjusted are correctly set up and that only Volvo Penta Original Parts
are used on the engine. The stated service intervals in
the Maintenance Schedule must be followed.
Some systems, such as the components in the fuel sys-
tem, require special expertise and special testing equip-
ment for service and maintenance. Some components
are factory sealed for environmental and product specific reasons. Under no circumstances attempt to ser-
vice or repair a sealed component unless the service
technician carrying out the work is authorized to do so.
Bear in mind that most of the chemicals used around
boats are harmful to the environment if used incorrectly.
Volvo Penta recommends the use of bio-degradable
degreasing agents for all cleaning of engine components unless otherwise stated in the Workshop Manual.
When working onboard a boat make a special point of
preventing oil, waste water from washing components
entering the
safe disposal at an approved site for destruction.
Tightening
The correct tighteningtorquesfor critical joints which
must be tightened using a torque wrench are listed under "Technical Specifications - Tightening
and stated in the method descriptions in the Workshop
Manual. All tighteningtorques

Tightening torque with Protractor tightening (angle tightening)
Tightening using both a torque setting and a protractor
angle requires that first the recommended torque is applied using a torque wrench and then the recommended
angle is added according to the protractor scale. Example: a 90° protractor tightening means that the joint is
tightened a further 1/4 turn in one operation after the
stated tightening torque has been applied.
Lock nuts
Do not re-use lock nuts that have been removed during
dissassembly
vice life when re-used - use new nuts when assembling or reinstalling. For lock nuts with a plastic insert
such as

nuts are higher, or of
Strength classes
Bolts and nuts are divided up into different classes of
strength; the class is indicated by the number on the
bolt head. A high number indicates stronger material,
for example a bolt marked 10-9 indicates a higher
strength than one marked 8-8. It is therefore important
that bolts removed during the disassembly of a bolted
j
oint must be reinstalled in their original position when
assembling the joint. If a bolt must be replaced check in
the replacement parts catalogue to make sure the cor-
rect bolt is used.
Make sure that mating surfaces are dry and free from
oil,
grease, paint and anti-corrosion agent before apply-
i
ng sealant or locking fluid. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for use regarding temperature range,
curing time and any other instructions for the product.
Two different basic types of agent are used on the engine and these are:
RTV

spirits in all cases.
Anaerobic agents. These agents cure in an absence of
air.
They are used when two solid parts, for example
cast components, are installed face-to-face without a
gasket. They are also commonly used to secure plugs,
threads in stud bolts, cocks, oil pressure switches and
so on. The cured material is glass-like and it is therefore
colored to make it visible. Cured anaerobic agents are
extremely resistant to solvents and the old agent cannot
be removed. When reinstalling the part is carefully degreased and then new sealant is applied.

Safety rules for fluorocarbon rubber
Fluorocarbon rubber is a common material in seal
rings for shafts, and in O-rings, for example.
When fluorocarbon rubber is subjected to high tem-
peratures (above
can be formed, which is highly corrosive. Skin contact can give severe chemical burns. Splashes in
your eyes can give severe chemical burns. If you
breathe in the fumes, your lungs can be permanently
damaged.

Seals must never be cut with an oxyacetylene torch, or be burned up afterwards in an
uncontrolled manner.
Always use gloves made of
•
(gloves for handling chemicals) and protective
goggles.
Handle the removed seal in the same way as
•
corrosive acid. All residue, including ash, can be
highly corrosive. Never use compressed air to
blow anything clean.
Put the remains in a plastic box which is sealed
•
and provided with a warning label. Wash the
gloves under running water before removing
them.
The following seals are probably made from fluorocarbon rubber:
Seal rings for the crankshaft, camshaft, intermediate
shafts.
O-rings irrespective of where they are installed.
O-rings for cylinder liner sealing are almost always
made from fluorocarbon rubber.
Note that seals which have not been subjected to
high temperature can be handled normally.

Description
Cylinder head
The cylinder head is manufactured of specially alloyed
cast iron. It is provided with replaceable valve seats for
the inlet valves.
The cylinder head is screwed onto the cylinder block
with screws. The tightening of the cylinder head should
be done in three stages.
Cylinder block
The cylinder block is cast in one piece of specially all
oyed cast iron.
Pistons, piston rings
The pistons are manufactured of a light-weight metal all
oy. They are fitted with three piston rings (chromium-
plated) - two compression rings and an oil ring.
Crank mechanism
Crankshaft
The crankshaft is journaled in three main bearings
(
MD2010),or four main bearings (other engines). The
axial bearing onMD2040 consists of loose thrust washers placed at the rear main bearing. On the other en-
gines the rear main bearing cap is made of aluminium
and serves as thrust washers. The crankshaft is statically
and dynamically balanced and has induction hardened
bearing surfaces. At the front the crankshaft is fitted with
a key joint and at the rear with a flange on which the flywheel is attached.
Main and big-end bearings
The main and big-end bearings consist of steel shells
li
ned with bearing metal. The bearings are precision
milled and ready for installation. Two oversizes are
available as spare parts.
Note:
The thrust washers for the crankshaft's axial bear-
i
ng are not available in oversize.
Camshaft
The injection pump is driven from the front part of the
camshaft by means of two or three separate cams (de-
pending on the number of cylinders).
The feed pump is driven via an eccentric cam from the
rear of the camshaft.
Timing gears
The timing gears consists of cylindrical gears with bevelled cogs.
The camshaft and sea water pump are driven from the
crankshaft gear via an intermediate gear. The engine's
oil pump is built into the intermediate wheel and is driven via this. Regulator weights are suspended in the
front edge of the camshaft gear.
2 4
Connecting rods
The connecting rods have I-sections. The piston bolt end
i
s through-drilled for lubrication of the gudgeon pin.
Flywheel
The flywheel is screwed on a flange on the rear of the
crankshaft. It is statically balanced and fully processed.
The starter ring is shrunk onto the flywheel.
A flexible coupling with damper element of rubber is
screwed on the flywheel. The coupling transfers the
force to the reverse gear/S-drive.

nspection of cylinder head
The flatness tolerance for the cylinder head is max. 0.12
mm (.00472"). Check in six positions ("A-F" as per Fig.
15 and 16). Use a feeler gauge and a ruler the sides of
which are precision rubbed as per DIN 874/Normal.
Fig. 15. Checking of cylinder head flatness
1.
Remove the valves and valve springs. Press the
springs together with a valve spring tensioner and
remove the valve lock. Place the valves in order in
a marked valve rack. Remove the valve stem seals.
2.
Clean all parts. Observe special care with the
channels for oil and refrigerant.
3.
Remove residual soot and impurities from the cylinder head's sealing surfaces.
Note:
Do not use use steel brush to clean the cylin-
der head screw threads or under the screw heads.

f the flatness is not within the permissible tolerance the
cylinder head should be replaced. If leakage or blow
marks are confirmed it is not necessary to check for flat-
ness since the cylinder head must be replaced.
Check the valve seats and that the pin screws are tight.
For replacement of the valve seats (inlet) see next

nspection of front crankshaft bushing
Check the bearing clearance between the big-end journal and bushing. Use a cylinder indicator and a micrometer.
Fig. 74. Checking of bearing clearance
1.
Measure the bushing's inner diameter at points 1
and 2 as per Fig. 72 on page 46. Measure in two
directions ("A" and "B") at each point.
Fig. 73. Checking of recess radius
2.It is very important that the recess radius is the correct size.
Recess radius:
- At main and big-end bearing journals,
"A" = 3 ± 0.25 mm (.1181 ±.0098 in)
- At oil holes, "C" = min. 2 mm (.0787 in),
max. 5 mm (.1968 in).
Grinding hacks and sharp edges must be avoided
since these can give rise to crankshaft fracture.
3.
Clean the crankshaft well from grinding residue and
other impurities. Flush and clean the oil channels.
2.
Measure the bearing journal's outer diameter and
calculate the bearing clearance (difference be-
t
ween the previous measurement and the bearing
j
ournal's max. diameter).
Max. bearing clearance: 0.2 mm (.0078 in).
Replace the bushing if the clearance exceeds the per-
missible value. Where necessary the crankshaft can be
ground to an appropriate undersize and the bushing
can be replaced with a corresponding oversize.
Note:
Check the bearing clearance again before the
crankshaft is fitted if it has been re-ground.

Lubricating system
General
The engines are provided with a pressure lubricating
system with an oil filter of the full flow type.
Oil pump
The oil pump is placed in the intermediate gear in the
transmission, and from where it is also driven.
The pump is of the rotor type with an inner and outer rotor placed eccentrically in relation to each other. The in-
ner rotor has one "cog" less that the outer rotor.
The function of the pump is based on the increase and
decrease of the space between the outer and inner rotor cogs. During the first part of the inner rotor's rotation
speed the volume is increased, whereby an
sure
occurs and oil is induced in through the inlet. After
approx. 1/2 turn the space is reduced and a pressure
condition occurs which presses out oil through the
outlet.
underpres-
Reducing valve
The oil pressure is limited by a reducing valve. The
valve is placed in the lubricating system just in front of
the oil filter and is fitted on the right-hand side of the cyli
nder block in front of the oil filter.
The valve opens at excessive high pressure and releases oil back to the sump.
Oil filter
The oil filter is of the full flow type which implies that all
the oil is filtered before it is pressed out to the bearing
areas.
The filter is placed on the right-hand side of the cylinder
block. The filter element consists of folded filter paper.
I
n the bottom of the filter there is an overflow valve
(A, Fig. 82) which opens and releases oil past the filter
if the insert should be blocked.
The filter is of the disposable type and is scrapped after
use.

Crankcase ventilation
To prevent overpressure and to separate fuel vapour,

Checking of the oil pressure
The oil pressure can be checked by connecting a manometer with hose to the connection for the oil pressure
contact (thread size in cylinder head = 1/8"). The oil
pressure should at running speed and temperature be
150-500 kPa (1.5-5 kp/cm2,
If the oil pressure is too high or too low the reducing
valve can be replaced first and then the oil pressure
checked again.
The valve is fitted on the right-hand side of the cylinder
block in front of the oil filter (Fig. 83).

Fuel system
General
The fuel is induced by the feed pump from the fuel tank
through a water separating pre-filter (accessory) and
pressed through the fine filter to the injection pump
(Fig. 85).
Return fuel from the injectors is led through the fuel leak
pipe/return pipe back to the tank.

Centrifugal regulator
The regulator is mechanical and works with speed
sensing regulator weights. It is fitted at the front on the
camshaft gear from where it is also driven.
The regulator weights activate the injection pump's control rod via the regulator sleeve, a lever and a regulator
arm. The speed is regulated over the entire engine
speed range, from low idling speed to high speed (universal type).
Feed pump
The feed pump is also positioned on the right-hand of
the engine and is driven via a cam on the engine's camshaft.
I
njectors
The engines are fitted with injectors (Fig. 86). Each in-
jector basically consists of a nozzle holder and a
nozzle.
When the fuel pressure has increased to the set value
(opening pressure) the nozzle needle (pin) (5) lifts
which is held pressed against its seat by the thrust
washer (6) and atomised fuel is injected into the en-
gine's precombustion chamber.
The injector's opening pressure is determined by the
tension of the thrust washer, which in turn is adjusted
with adjuster washers (7).

Cooling system
General
The engines are fresh water cooled and fitted with an
enclosed cooling system. The system is divided into
t
wo circuits.
I
n the inner circuit (fresh water system) the refrigerant is
pumped round by a circulation pump which is driven by
a V-belt from the crankshaft pulley.
The fresh water system works at a certain overpressure, whereby the risk of boiling is reduced at high tem-
peratures. A pressure valve opens in the filler cap if the
pressure gets higher than normal.
The temperature of the refrigerant is regulated by a
thermostat.
The percolation in the sea water system is handled by a
gear driven pump of the blade type.
Heat is transferred from the refrigerant to the sea water
i
n a heat exchanger.
As extra equipment the engine can be fitted with a separate expansion tank.
Sea water pump
The sea water pump is fitted on the timing gear housing
at the front end of the engine. The pump is driven via the
engine's timing gears. The pump wheel (impeller) is manufactured of rubber and is replaceable.
The pump wheel will become damaged if the pump

s run dry.
Fig. 104. Filler cap for refrigerant
Thermostat
The engines are provided with a thermostat, the sensor
body of which contains wax.
When the engine is cold the thermostat keeps the chan-
nel to the heat exchanger closed. The refrigerant then
passes via a a by-pass pipe directly back to the induc-
tion side of the pump. As the engine heats up the wax
i
ncreases in volume and the thermostat gradually opens
the channel to the heat exchanger, at the same time as
the by-pass pipe is closed.

Repair instructions
NOTE! Close the bottom valve before working on the

Refrigerant
The refrigerant has the twin purpose of protecting the
cooling system from freezing and preventing corrosion.
Antifreeze
Use a mixture of 50 % Volvo Penta antifreeze (glycol) and
50 % pure water (as neutral as possible). This mixture
prevents freezing down to approx. -40°C (-40°F) and
should be used all year round.
Fig. 105. Draining of the refrigerant
Note: At least 40 % antifreeze should be used in the system to ensure satisfactory corrosion protection.
Mix the antifreeze with water in a separate vessel before
filling the cooling system.
For replenishment of the refrigerant see the instruction on

Electrical system
General
The engines are fitted with AC generators. The system
voltage is 12V.
MD2010A, -2020A, -2030A and -2040A are fitted with a
1,5-pole* electrical system, while MD201OB/C, 2020B/
C, 2030B/C and 2040B/C have a one-pole system.

Charging distributor
As an accessory the engine's standard alternator can
be provided with a charging distributor. Two separate
battery circuits can thereby be charged simultaneously.
The charging distributor separates both groups from
each other so that the engine's start battery is main-
tained fully charged even if the "accessory batteries"
are weak or almost flat.
Alternator
Voltage regulator with sensor system
The voltage regulator to the standard alternator (14V/
60A) is provided with a sensor system.
The sensor system compares the charge voltage between the alternator's connections B+ and 13- with that
between the batteries' plus and minus poles. The volt-
age regulator then compensates any voltage drop in the
cables between alternator and batteries by increasing
the charge voltage when necessary from the alternator.
On delivery from Volvo Penta the sensor system is not
activated. Connection has, however, in all probability
been carried out in connection with the installation of
the engine.

the electrical system.
1.
Main switch
Never break the current circuit between the alternator and battery when the engine is running. The
main switch must never be switched off before the
engine has stopped. If the current is broken while
the engine is running the voltage regulator can be
destroyed and the alternator seriously damaged.
For the same reason the charging circuits must not
be switched over when the engine is running. For
simultaneous charging of two separate battery circuits it is possible to fit a Volvo Penta charging distributor to the standard alternator (accessory).
2.
Batteries
Never switch the batteries plus and minus poles
when fitting the batteries. This can result in serious
damage to the electrical equipments. Compare with
the wiring diagram. The battery poles should be
well cleaned and the lead lugs always tight and
well greased to ensure good contact.
Quick charging of batteries should be avoided. If
quick charging must be used, then both battery
l
eads should always be removed first.
NOTE! Follow the relevant safety instructions when
charging batteries. During charging the cell plugs
should be unscrewed but remain in the plug holes.
Ventilate well, especially if the batteries are
charged in a closed room. Always switch off the

oxidise off via the hole.
If
a hole must be made in the insulation, it should
be sealed with an appropriate glue afterwards.

Connection of extra equipment
All extra equipment should be connected to a sepa-
rate terminal box and be fused. Extra power points
directly from instrument panels should be avoided.

the multimeter between the battery's plus and minus
pole. Run the engine at approx. 2000 rpm. Read off and
note the voltage over the battery poles.
The alternator provides approx. 14.0 V:
Conduct test as follows:
Connect the multimeter between the alternator's B+ and
B- connections.
Run the engine at approx. 2000 rpm. The alternator
should provide 14.0-14.4 V. The total voltage drop
must not exceed 0.4 V.
Voltage drop less than 0.2 V:
Battery leads in good condition.
Voltage drop more than 0.3 V:
Conduct check of battery leads.
The alternator provides more than 14.4 V:
See items "Checking and troubleshooting of alternator"
and "Checking of the regulator".
Checking of positive battery lead
Connect the multimeter between the alternator's B+
connection and the battery's plus pole.
Run the engine at approx. 2000 rpm. The voltage drop
must not exceed 0.2 V. If the voltage drop exceeds this
value the lead connections must be rectified as per the
"Procedure" below.
After this carry out a test as per "Checking of negative
battery charging".
Checking of negative battery lead
Connect the multimeter between the alternator's Bconnection and the battery's minus pole (-).
Run the engine at approx. 2000 rpm. The voltage drop
must not exceed 0.2 V. If the voltage drop exceeds this

Checking and troubleshooting of the alternator
Dismantle the alternator's electrical connections.
Spanner widths 8 and 10 mm.
Remove the alternator belt. Dismantle the alternator.
Spanner widths 1 1/16"; 5/8"; 12 mm and 13 mm.
Release the voltage regulator's connections at the alternator's B+ connection. Remove the flat pin at connec-
tion B+ and D+. Remove the cap on the W connection.
Bend the plastic guard's attachment lugs alternately off
the alternator. Release the regulator's two connection
cables to the diode bridge. Use long-nose pliers or poke
out the cable lugs with a screwdriver. Do not pull the
cables!
Replacement of carbon brushes in the
alternator
Unscrew the voltage regulator. Unscrew the brush hold-
er.
Check the length of the carbon brushes. Replace the
brushes if they are 5 mm (.1968 in) or shorter. Carbon
and holder are replaced as one unit. Unsolder the con-
nection cables and solder on the new ones with an
acid-free soft solder.

Checking of the regulator
Special tool: Regulator tester 884892-1
Check before testing that the instrument's batteries
have the correct voltage. Press in the button "Test" and
check that the green lamp ("Batt.") lights. Replace the
batteries (2 pcs alkaline, 9 V) if the lamp does not light.
The batteries are in a compartment underneath the instrument.
Connect the tester's grey cables to the carbon.
Connect the tester's brown cable to the regulator's yell
ow and brown cables which should be put together dur-
i
ng the test.
Connect the tester's black cable to the regulator's black
cable.
Press the "Test" button and at the same time turn the
rheostat from the "0" marking to the "1" marking.
Regulator in good condition
The red and green lamps should light from "0". The red
l
amp should go off at the "1" marking.
Dismantling the diode bridge
I
n order to check the diode bridge and stator windings
the diode bridge should be dismantled.
Unsolder the three stator windings. Avoid excessive
heat since this can damage the diodes. Release the
nuts (note how the washers and nuts are fitted).
Check measurement of the diode bridge
Set the multimeter in the position "Diode test". Be very
careful to obtain good contact with the probes during all
measurements.
Checking of the B+ diodes
Connect the measuring instrument's positive probe to
one of the stator winding connections (1-2-3). Connect
the instrument's negative probe to the diode plate's B+.
Read off the instrument. A normal value should lie between 450 and 650 mV, which is the voltage drop over
the diode. An other value indicates a defective diode.
Check the other B+ diodes by moving the positive
probe to the respective connection (1-2-3).
Check the B+ diodes in the opposite direction of current
flow by switching the position of the positive and neg-
ative probes. Carry out the same measurement procedure as above. The instrument should during this measurement show a one "1" (to far left). If the instrument
shows another value the diode is defective.
Faulty regulator
Replace the regulator if the red lamp lights constantly
when the rheostat is turned, or if it does not light in any
position.
Note:
The "2" marking on the tester is not used for this
type of regulator.
Check measurement of rotor winding
After the regulator and carbon brushes have been re-
moved it is possible to measure the resistance of the ro-
tor.
Set the measuring instrument in position Q. Make sure
that the probes have good contact between the slip
rings. The resistance of the rotor should be 3.0-5.0 Q.
Check also

The instrument should during this measurement show a
one "1" (to far left). If the instrument shows another value the diode is defective.
Note: If any diode is defective the entire diode plate
must be replaced.
Checking of the D+ diodes
The diode plate's three magnetising diodes are check
according to the same principle as above.
Connect the measuring instrument's positive probe to
the respective connection for the stator winding (1-2-3)
and the instrument's negative probe to D+. The voltage

windings is carried out the measuring cable's inner re-
sistance (e.g. 0.10 Q) must be deducted from the value
obtained.
Measure between all winding connections (three measurements). The resistance should lie at 0.10 S2.
Measure also against the alternator material by connecting the instrument in position S2. Measure between
the respective winding and the material. The instrument
should during this measurement show a one "1" (which

nspection of the starter motor
Troubleshooting on the starter motor should be handed
over to an authorised electrical workshop which disposes
over the necessary test equipment.
1.
Test the rotor with respect to winding flash-over and
failure with the test equipment for this purpose.
Fig. 120. Checking of the commutator
2.
Check that the mating surfaces for the electric
brushes on the commutator are smooth and free
from dirt and oil. If the commutator is damaged or
burnt it can be polished with sandpaper No. 500 or
600.
Measure the commutator with a dial gauge. Max.
permissible radial distortion is 0.05 mm (.0019 in).
3.
Check that the commutator's insulation lies at least
0.2 mm (.0078 in) below the laminated surface. Correct if necessary. See Fig. 120.
4.
Check the linearity of the rotor. Brace the rotor between spikes and measure the radial distortion on
the rotor frame with a dial gauge. Max. permissible
radial distortion is 0.08 mm (.0031 in).
