disconnected.
To avoid solenoid damage, do not leave the battery
connected for more than 5 seconds.
Replace the solenoid if necessary.

• Some meters show current flow from negative (–) to
positive (+), others show flow from positive (+) to
negative (–). The polarity of the meter does not

shows current flowing one way and not the other the
diode is good.
