FIELD TEST
PULL IN SOLENOID (See Figure 10F-1)
1. Disconnect the NEG (–) battery cable.
2. Disconnect the RED and BRN leads from the coil
and tape the ends together to ensure good contact.
3. Connect the NEG battery cable and turn the igni-
tion switch to the START position.
•
Each time the ignition switch is turned to the start
position, a “click” should be heard from the coil.
•
If no click is heard the coil or electrical supply
may be defective. Continue with the next step.
4. Remove the PUR/WHT solenoid wire.
5. Set the multimeter to 20 VDC and connect the
POS (+) lead to the solenoid wire. Connect the
NEG (–) lead to a good ground.
6. Turn and hold the ignition switch in the start position.
•
The multimeter should read battery voltage.
•
If no voltage is measured, an open interlock
switch (Section 10G), faulty wire (Section 10C)
or ignition switch (Section 10G), could be at fault.
