1. 12 Volt Battery Terminal - Disconnect

2. Starter Solenoid - Test

1. Disconnect the connector (A), the positive cable (B), and the motor cable (C).
2. Check the hold-in coil for continuity between the S terminal and the armature housing (ground). There should be continuity:
   • If there is continuity, go to step 3.
   • If there is no continuity, replace the solenoid.
3. Check the pull-in coil for continuity between the S terminal and the M terminal. There should be continuity:
   • If there is continuity, the solenoid is OK.
   • If there is no continuity, replace the solenoid.

3. All Removed Parts - Install

1. Install the parts in the reverse order of removal.

   NOTE: Make sure the crimped side of the ring terminal faces away from the starter when you connect the positive cable.
