5.3 Rotor Replacement Procedure
1. With a small pair of needle-nose pliers, firmly
grip the center of the rotor pin (axle) and with a
twisting motion, bend the rotor pin into an "S"
shape. This should pull the ends of the pin out of
the shaft retainers and free the rotor assembly.
2. Remove shaft retainer from each side by gently
tapping it inwards using a punch. Install a new
shaft retainer with the rotor shaft clearance hole
inward. Only install one shaft retainer at this
time.
3. Insert the new rotor assembly and bearings into
the rotor housing of the sensor and place the new
rotor pin (axle) through the open end of the rotor
housing, through the rotor and bearings, and into
the previously installed shaft retainer.
4. Tap the second shaft retainer (rotor shaft clear-
ance hole inwards) into the hole while lining up the
rotor pin with the center of the shaft retaining hole.
This completes the rotor replacement procedure.
