Starter Solenoid Test
IMPORTANT: All engine wiring must be discon-
nected from the solenoid before proceeding.
STEP 1
Connect one ohmmeter lead to terminal (A) and
the other lead to terminal (B).
• Ohmmeter must show a high reading.
• If ohmmeter shows a low reading, replace the
solenoid.
STEP 2
With the ohmmeter still connected, attach a posi-
tive (+) battery jumper to terminal (C) and a nega-
tive (–) battery jumper to terminal (D). The
solenoid should close with an audible click.
• Ohmmeter must show a low reading.
• If ohmmeter shows a high reading, replace the
solenoid.
After installing the solenoid, coat all wires and ter-
minals with Black Neoprene Dip.
