FUEL SOLENOID (See Figure 10I-1)
When the ignition switch is turned to the START posi-
tion, the solenoid plunger retracts approximately 1"
(25.4 mm). This opens the fuel system. With the
plunger retracted there should be a gap between the
lever and top.
TEST
Solenoid does not retract when ignition switch is turned
to start.
1. Disconnect solenoid plug.
2. Set multimeter to 20 VDC range.
3. Connect black NEG (–) lead of multimeter to ter-
minal of BLK wire.
4. Connect red POS (+) lead of multimeter to termi-
nal of RED wire, turn ignition switch ON.
•
If multimeter reads battery voltage, tractor wir-
ing is okay, proceed with Step 5.
•
If battery voltage is not present, check wiring for
an open or high resistance.
5. Connect red POS (+) lead of multimeter to termi-
nal of WHT wire.
•
No voltage should register, proceed with Step 6.
•
If battery voltage is present, fuel solenoid relay
may be faulty.
6. Turn and hold ignition switch in the START position.
•
Multimeter should read battery voltage if tests
are okay, fuel solenoid may be faulty.
•
If low or no voltage registers, check that fuel sole-
noid relay and/or wiring for high resistance or
opens.
