+ | [* black] 1. Check that the starter is a glow starter: # via serial number + internet -by opening the starter-housing with a small cut parallel to the long side (see rectangular in second image). If it looks like the second picture, it is a glow starter. |
+ | [* black] 2. There are three different failure modes of a glow starter, those are:[br]-break-down of capacitor => effect: short circuiting the starter[br]-sputtered metal impurified gas => effect: switch won't close anymore[cr]-bimetal strip fused to the other beam => switch won't open anymore, thus is short-circuited. |
+ | [* black] 3. The error that is adressed in this guide is a fused bimetal strip. To determine if this is the case, a continuity tester can be used and hold to the two pins. If the starter is short circuited, its either a broken capacitor or the bimetal strip. |
