Ignition Relay
The ignition relay is located under the seat. Test the relay as
follows:
1. See Figure 7-16. Locate ignition relay (2) within relay
block.
2. To test relay, proceed to Step 3. If installing a new starter
relay, remove old relay. Install new relay into relay block.
3. See Figure 7-17. Obtain a 12 volt battery and a continu-
ity tester or ohmmeter.
a. Pull relay from relay block.
b. Connect positive battery lead to the 86 terminal.
c. Connect negative battery lead to the 85 terminal to
energize relay.
d. Check for continuity between the 30 and 87 termi-
nals. A good relay shows continuity (continuity tester
lamp "on" or a zero ohm reading on the ohmmeter).
A malfunctioning relay will not show continuity and
must be replaced.
4. Replace the relay with a new relay if necessary.
