Not strange at all. If one terminal is grounded, there is direct continuity. The other terminal is grounded through the field winding to the other field terminal which is grounded, indirect continuity if you will.



i had a cracked brush holder do that to me one time. when i discovered it and took the holder out, it broke into pieces.
