Starter Solenoid Test
1. Disconnect the S and lvl connectors from the starter
solenoid.
2. Check the hold-in coil for continuity between the S
terminal and the armature housing (ground). There
should be continuity.
. lf there is continuity, goto step 3.. lf there is no continuity, replace the solenoid,
3. Check the pull-in coil for continuity betwee n the S
terminal and M terminal. There should be
continuity,
. lf there is continuity, the solenoid is OK.
. lf there is no continuity, replace the solenoid,

Starting System
Starter Performance Test
1,Disconnect the wires from the S terminal and the M
termrnal.
Make a connection as described below using as
heavy a wire as possible (preterably equivalent to
the wire used for the vehicle). To avoid damaging
the starter, never leave the battery connected for
more than 10 seconds,
Connect the battery as shown. Be sure to
disconnect the starter motor wire from the solenoid.
lf the starter pinion moves out, it is workingpropefly.
Disconnect the battery from the M terminal. lf thepinion does not retract, the hold-in coil of the
solenoid is working properly.

5. Disconnect the battery from the starter body. lfthepinion retracts immediately, it is working properly.
Clamp the starter firmly in a vise.
Connect the starter to the battery as described in
the diagram below, and confirm that the motor
sta rts and keeps rotating.

7.
lf the eiectric cu rrent and motor speed meet the
specifications when the battery voltage is at 1 1.5 V,
the staner is working properly,
