Posted: 23:42 - 30 Apr 2022 Post subject: Replacing starter motor brushes - solder, weld or crimp? |
|
|
Hi all,
I am going to replace the starter motor brushes on my starter motor for my Yamaha Diversion 900. I only have a soldering iron and I've realised they might be welded. Do I need to weld on the replacements? Or can I get away with soldering / crimping them in?
And if solder, what power soldering iron am I likely to need? I have 25w and 40w. Lidls have a gas powered soldering iron in this weekend @ the bargain price of £15, so that's another option.
Thanks ____________________ Current: Yamaha Diversion XJ900

Here's a Divvy starter service kit from Ebay
It looks to me that the brush tails are crimped to the base on the earth side and have an eyelet terminal attached to a peened over stud on the positive side.
You could of course cheap out and buy individual brushes to try to fit them yourself, or just cough up the dosh.
I still maintain you should examine the fecker first
instead of playing swap and hope.
There's more to starter motors than brushes, what if the commutator
is burn out,winding insulation heat damaged or bearings and seals worn?
