Relay Test

  1. On automatic transmission/transaxle vehicles, put gear selector in "NEUTRAL" or "PARK". On manual transmission/transaxle vehicles, put gear selector in "NEUTRAL". Set parking brake and block wheels. DO NOT  remove relay connector. Using a test light, check for battery voltage between starter relay battery terminal and ground.
  2. Use a jumper wire on starter relay between battery and ignition terminals. If engine cranks starter relay is good. If starter does not crank go to next step.
  3. Connect another jumper wire to starter relay between ground terminal and ground. Repeat above test. If engine cranks starter relay is good but transmission linkage is misadjusted or neutral safety switch is defective.
