Relay Test

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the relay.
  2. Test for 70-100 Ω between terminals 85 and 86.
    • If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the relay.
  3. Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
    • 30 and 85
    • 30 and 86
    • 30 and 87
    • 85 and 87
    • If not the specified value, replace the relay.
  4. Install a 10 A fused jumper wire between relay terminal 85 and B+. Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 86 and ground. Test for less than 2 Ω between terminals 30 and 87.
    • If greater than the specified range, replace the relay.
