  2. Note identification of electrical terminals on power main relay. See Fig 1. Using ohmmeter, check that no continuity exists between terminals No. 3 and 5 on power main relay. Check that continuity exists between terminals No. 1 and 2 on power main relay.
  3. Using jumper wires, apply battery voltage and ground to terminals No. 1 and 2 on power main relay. Check that continuity now exists between terminals No. 3 and 5 on power main relay. See Fig 1. If continuity is not as specified, replace power main relay.
