<p>Systems Repair Worksheet Chapter 18 Pages 537-570 Name ______Starting & Traction Motor Systems 62 Points Due Date _____</p><p>1. Electric ______are used to start the engine & in hybrids are used to move the vehicle. Motors are also used to operate many different accessories requiring either linear or rotary motion.</p><p>2. Starter motors & accessory motors use ___ voltage while traction or drive motors use ___voltage. </p><p>3. ______& ______are closely related because one can be used to create the other.</p><p>4. ______flow through a wire creates a magnetic field & moving a _____ through a magnetic field creates current flow in the wire. Coils or loops of wire just intensify that effect.</p><p>5. A magnetic field called, called a ______, exists around every magnet. </p><p>6. Temporary magnets (armatures) are made of ______iron. Permanent magnets require hard iron.</p><p>7. The resistance that a material offers to passage of magnetic flux lines is called ______.</p><p>8. Air has ______reluctance. Soft iron cores & armatures have ______reluctance.</p><p>9. An electric motor converts ______energy into ______energy.</p><p>10. Basic components of a motor are the stator or ______windings, & the rotor or ______.</p><p>11. Either the field windings or the armature can be made of ______magnets, but not both.</p><p>12. Starter motors are designed to operate under great ______for short periods of time.</p><p>13. The starter frame holds the stationary ______coils (flat copper) & their ______shoes (soft iron).</p><p>14. The ______is the rotating part of the starter, made up of windings and the commutator.</p><p>15. Starter ______connect the armature & the field coils in either a series or parallel arrangement.</p><p>16. ______magnetic fields cause the motor armature to rotate. </p><p>17. ______magnet starter motors may have a planetary gear reduction to increase torque.</p><p>18. The slower the motor turns, the ______current it will draw. Maximum current is drawn when it engaged, but the armature is not rotating. 19. The starting system has 2 distinct circuits: 1) the ______(motor feed-high amps) </p><p> circuit, and 2) the ______(low amps-switching) circuit. </p><p>20. The motor feed circuit contains the battery & cables, the ______, & the starter motor.</p><p>21. The control circuit contains the ______switch, starting ______switch, a ______or a solenoid (to use low amps to control higher amps), the battery, fuses, and normal-gauge wiring.</p><p>22. The ______plunger is used to move the starter pinion gear & its contacts serve as a relay switch to energize the motor once the drive pinion engages the flywheel/flex plate ring gear. </p><p>23. A starter ______is similar to a solenoid, switches high current using low current, but does not pull-in a plunger to actuate a starter drive.</p><p>24. A movable ______starter does not use a starter motor mounted solenoid. </p><p>25. To prevent the pinion gear from driving the armature at engine speed an ______clutch is built into the starter drive mechanism. </p><p>26. Starter drive-to-ring gear ratio is a gear reduction to provide a torque increase. True False</p><p>27. The starting safety switch allows the control circuit to be energized only if the automatic trans is</p><p> in either the ______or ______position and only if the manual transmission has the clutch pedal fully pushed to the floor to disengage the transmission from the engine. </p><p>28. Perform a ______load test before performing any starting system tests. Note: Loose or dirty connections will cause excessive voltage drops in the motor feed circuit.</p><p>29. Battery volts should not drop below _____ volts during the 15 seconds of cranking voltage test.</p><p>30. Cranking current (amperage) should be between 100-250 amps for most gas engines. True False</p><p>31. A voltage drop test of both the ______side and the ground side (- to -) of the motor feed circuit should show between 0.2 to 0.6 volts if the battery/starter cables are in good condition.</p><p>32. Starter solenoids can be by-passed or jumped to verify their condition. True False</p><p>33. Ignition switches can be by-passed or jumped to verify their condition. True False</p><p>34. Even the low amps, control circuit can be ______(+ to +) tested during cranking to determine the condition (resistance) of the wiring. Good, low amps circuits should be under 0.2 VD.</p><p>35. A starter no-load or free speed bench test can be low on RPM’s if a pole ______drags against the armature. This could be caused by either a loose shoe or by worn drive-end & brush-end bushings. 36. When testing an armature with a growler, a vibrating strap indicates a ______armature, continuity from commutator bars to the armature frame indicates a prematurely grounded motor, </p><p> and no continuity from commutator bar to commutator bar indicates an ______condition which will result in “dead spots” during cranking.</p><p>37. ______should be of the proper length, commutator bars should be smooth, and the mica strips of insulation between the commutator bars should be properly undercut to a uniform depth.</p><p>38. Starter drive ______on the armature shaft and both armature ______should be lightly lubricated with high temperature grease during rebuilding procedures.</p><p>39. In the space below, wire-up a cranking circuit that uses a remotely mounted starter solenoid. (include: battery, grounds, fuse, P/N switch, ignition switch, solenoid, starter motor)</p><p>40. In the space below, wire-up a cranking circuit that uses both a starter relay and a starter solenoid. (include: battery, grounds, fuse, P/N switch, ignition switch, relay, solenoid, starter motor)</p><p>41. On the top circuit, draw in a DMM connected for a battery ground cable voltage drop test.</p><p>42. On the top circuit draw in a DMM connected for an open circuit voltage test of the battery.</p><p>43. On the bottom circuit, draw in a DMM connected for a battery positive cable voltage drop test.</p><p>44. On the bottom circuit draw in a DMM inductively connected for a cranking current draw test.</p>
