Ag Power - Troubleshooting Stators

Curriculum DevelopmentLesson
Written By Tamara Moore

Students will troubleshoot electrical components in small engines by testing stator conductivity using multimeters. This hands-on activity teaches diagnostic skills needed for engine repair. Students will test four stator components (one deliberately disabled) following video demonstration procedures, applying their knowledge of Ohm's law and electrical conductivity. This lesson provides practical experience for students interested in careers as automotive, diesel, or small engine repair technicians.
