Starter Solenoid: Testing and Inspection
Starter Solenoid Test
1. Do the battery terminal disconnection procedure. See: Battery/Service and Repair/Procedures
2. Remove the harness clamp (A), starter cable (B), and the motor cable (C), and disconnect BLK/WHT wire connector (D).
3. Check the hold-in coil for continuity between the S terminal and the armature housing (ground). There should be continuity.
-
If there is continuity, go to step 4.
-
If there is no continuity, replace the solenoid.
4. Check the pull-in coil for continuity between the S terminal and the M terminal. There should be continuity.
-
If there is continuity, the solenoid is OK.
-
If there is no continuity, replace the solenoid.
5. Install wire and the connector in the reverse order of removal.
6. Do the battery terminal reconnection procedure. See: Battery/Service and Repair/Procedures
