[HARRY D. NICHOLSON]

After cleaning, you need to prove that the points are making and breaking contact electrically. To test their contact, remove all wires attached to the brass bar on the points assembly (coil wire and condenser wire), then touch one meter wire to ground (mag plate) and touch the other meter wire to the brass bar that held the coil & condenser wires. Then operate the fiber push bar in and out to test contact continuity on your meter. Sometimes clean looking points are dirty/oily.
