4. Inspect armature plate for a consistent wear pattern.
There should be two distinct wear bands (one band
inside the other). If only one band of wear is present
(or if there is wear between the two bands), inspect
the coil area as indicated in Step 5. A wear band with
an interrupted wear mark may indicate a warped
plate, which may cause intermittent operation.
5. Check to make sure the coil is seated in the U-
shaped insert that is pressed into the gearcase
cover. The top of the coil should be seated below the
U-shaped insert. The U-shaped insert controls the
pole gap. If the top of the coil is above the surface of
the U-shaped insert it raises the armature plate,
thereby increasing pole gap. If the pole gap
increases the coil will not be strong enough to
engage the AWD system. If this is found, replace the
cover plate assembly.
6. Inspect the rollers for nicks and scratches. The
rollers must slide up, down, in and out freely within
the roll cage sliding surfaces and H-springs.
7. Inspect the roll cage assembly for cracks or
excessive wear. If damaged, replace the roll cage
assembly.
