Caution: Refer to Safety Glasses Caution in the Preface section.
- Clean the flex plate, stator, and rotor with compressed air.
 
- Inspect the flex plate (1) for stress cracks around the flex plate-to-rotor bolt hole locations.
 
- Inspect the stator for the following conditions:
 
| •  | Rust or corrosion at the electrical terminal connection or the electrical windings (2 and 3) | 
 
| •  | Scoring or gouging in the electrical winding surfaces (3) | 
 
| •  | Damage to the exterior of the housing and/or coolant jacket | 
 
- Inspect the rotor for the following conditions:
 
| •  | Rust or corrosion of the electrical windings (4) | 
 
| •  | Scoring or gouging in the electrical winding surfaces | 
 
| •  | Stress cracks around the rotor-to-crankshaft bolt hole locations (5) | 
 
- Inspect the electrical terminal studs and the electrical connection for corrosion.
