NOTE: If voltage is present at the coil and contact, replace the relay.
An approved automotive spark plug tester is preferred for testing the secondary winding voltage.
All cranking tests are performed with the manual starter. Faster cranking speeds may produce higher
voltages.
Ignition and electric starter will not work if the Engine stop switches is in the kill position.
Charging system test should be performed if a no spark condition is encountered on this vehicle.
INSPECTION OF HEATING
ELEMENTS
NOTE: All measurements must be performed at
21°C(70°F).

*When measuring resistance at terminals the ac-
tual value will be half the measurement in table.
The reason for that is the elements are connected
in parallel. Therefore the total resistance is half
the resistance of one element.
