While performing STEPS 1 through 6,
remove the cable from the starter to the
solenoid to prevent starter engagement
while making checks.
STEP 1
Remove the black solenoid lead from ground con-
nection. Connect voltmeter between black sole-
noid lead and ground. Turn key to START
position. Voltmeter must show battery voltage.
• If no voltmeter reading, go to STEP 2.
• If voltmeter shows battery voltage, connect the
black solenoid lead to the ground connection
point and go to STEP 6.
STEP 2
IMPORTANT: While
performing STEPS 2
through 6 turn key OFF before connecting and
disconnecting voltmeter. Turn key to START after
connecting voltmeter.
Connect voltmeter between solenoid connection A
and ground. Turn key to START position. Check
voltage between solenoid connection A and
ground.
• If voltmeter shows battery voltage, lead is open
between black solenoid lead and solenoid con-
nection A.
• If no voltmeter reading, go to STEP 3.
STEP 3
Connect voltmeter between solenoid connection B
and ground. Turn key to START position. Check
voltage between solenoid connection Band
ground.
• If voltmeter reads battery voltage, solenoid is
faulty.
• If no voltmeter reading, go to STEP 4.

IMPORTANT: Remote control must be in NEU-
TRAL for neutral safety switch to be closed.
STEP 4
Connect voltmeter between key switch connector
pin S and ground. Turn key to START position.
Check voltage between pin S and ground.
• If voltmeter shows battery voltage, lead is open
between solenoid connection B and pin S or
neutral start switch is open or improperly
adjusted.
• If no voltmeter reading go to STEP 5.
STEPS
Connect voltmeter between key switch connector
pin B and ground. Turn key to OFF position.
Check voltage between pin B and ground.
• If voltmeter shows battery voltage, check key
switch.
• If no voltmeter reading at pin B, check for open
lead or open fuse between pin B and solenoid
connection C.
• Connect voltmeter at solenoid connection C. If
no voltmeter reading, check for open lead
between solenoid connection C and battery
positive (+) terminal. If voltmeter shows voltage,
go to STEP 7.
STEP 6
Connect voltmeter between solenoid connection
o
and ground. Turn key to START position. Check
voltage between solenoid connection 0 and
ground.
• If no voltmeter reading, solenoid is faulty.
• If solenoid clicks and voltmeter shows battery
voltage, go to STEP 7.
STEP 7
Connect the cable from starter to solenoid con-
nection D. Connect voltmeter between starter ter-
minal and ground. Turn key to START position.
• If voltmeter shows battery voltage and starter
does not turn , check starter motor.
• If no voltmeter reading, check for broken cable
or poor connection.
