STARTER/REVERSE SYSTEM
10. Starter Relay Switch B Relay Coil Control Line Continuity Inspection
Check the relay coil ground line of starter relay switch B (page 19-25).
Is there continuity?
NO
YES
11. Starter Relay Switch B Relay Coil Voltage Line Inspection
Check the relay coil input voltage line of starter relay switch B (page 19-25).
Is battery voltage present only when the starter/reverse switch is pushed in?
NO
YES
12. Starter Relay Switch B Operation Inspection
Check the operation of starter relay switch B (page 19-25).
Is there continuity between the cable terminals while the battery is connected, and no continuity
when the battery is disconnected?
NO
YES
