Relay Test

Ignition OFF, disconnect the relay.
Test for 50-200 ohms of resistance between terminals 85 and 86.
- If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the relay.
Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
- 30 and 86
- 30 and 87
- 30 and 85
- 85 and 87
- If not the specified value, replace the relay.
Install a 20 amp fused jumper wire between relay terminal 85 and 12 volts. Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 86 and ground. Test for less than 2.0 ohms of resistance between terminals 30 and 87.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the relay.
