Starter Solenoid: Testing and Inspection
1. Disconnect battery negative cable.
2. Using Rotunda Digital Volt-Ohmmeter 014-00407 or equivalent, check windings of solenoid assembly for continuity as follows:
-
Check resistance of solenoid pull-in and hold-in windings in series by measuring resistance between motor terminal and solenoid case.
Resistance should be approximately 0.95 ohms.
-
An extremely high resistance reading indicates a break or fault in winding continuity. A very low resistance reading indicates a short or ground
in the winding circuit. Either condition is cause for replacement of the solenoid assembly.
