Place ignition switch in Run position and check for voltage at connector terminals as well as controller relay stud terminals. Ensure terminal C
(black) is grounded.

Battery voltage should be indicated at terminals A (dark blue) and B (pink/black) and the red relay terminal. No voltage should be indicated at
terminal D (purple) or the green relay terminal.

check circuit to that terminal.
