1. Disconnect the solenoid connector.
2. Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between terminals.

   Standard resistance: 29 - 35 Ω 

   If resistance value is not as specified, replace the solenoid.

1. Disconnect the solenoid connector.
2. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals.

   Standard resistance: 12.5 - 16.5 Ω 

   If resistance value is not as specified, replace the solenoid.
