Armature, complete M201 24 volt

For Ducellier starter motor

Complete armature for the 24 volt Ducellier starter motor of the Hotchkiss M201. This rotating core component of the starter motor converts electrical energy into mechanical rotation to start the engine. Essential component for reliable starting performance.

Voltage

24 volt

Application

Ducellier starter motor

Vehicle

Hotchkiss M201

Type

Complete armature with commutator

Features

  • 24 volt Ducellier specification
  • Complete armature with commutator
  • For pre-engaged starter motor type
  • Suitable for M201 24V models (1960-1966)
  • Essential component for starting system

★ Replacement for the original Ducellier armature, designed for the 24 volt system that became standard on the French military M201 from mid-1960.

Application

Suitable for Hotchkiss M201 jeeps with 24 volt electrical system. The M201 was equipped with a 24 volt NATO-compliant electrical system and Ducellier pre-engaged starter motor from mid-1960 until end of production in 1966. Earlier M201 models (1956-1960) had 6 volt systems and require different parts.

Installation notes

The armature is a rotating core component of the starter motor. When replacing: check the commutator for wear, carbon brushes must move freely and have sufficient length. Ensure correct alignment with the drive gear. If problems occur with a centrifuged commutator, there may be an issue with the contact switch that must be addressed simultaneously.

Compatibility

ONLY for M201 with 24 volt system (1960-1966). NOT compatible with early 6 volt M201 models (1956-1960). Check the voltage of your electrical system before ordering — 24V M201s have two 12V batteries connected in series.

Historical context

The Hotchkiss M201 was built in France under Willys licence between 1955 and 1966 (27,628 units in total). From mid-1960, Hotchkiss switched to a 24 volt electrical system conforming to NATO specifications, with French Ducellier electrical components instead of American parts.
