Default Generator and Tom W

I ran all of the tests that were recommended and here are the results.
1. The generator motors but slowly and draws 15 amps when motoring.
2. The commutator does not read out to be shorted to the shaft.
3. Reading across the commutator segments (180*) I get a very low resistance reading.
4. Insulating the adjustable brush from the commutator I read about 3 amps when power is applied.

So now what????? Jack
