Solenoid Test

Solenoid test

1. Remove the starter.
2. Check for continuity between the solenoid terminal and the field coil terminal. If there is continuity, go to next step. If there is no continuity, repair/replace the faulty components and retest.
3. Check for continuity between the solenoid terminal and the solenoid case. If there is continuity, check the Starter Relay, Park/Neutral Position Switch, Clutch Pedal Position Switch and Ignition Switch. Refer to the Rio Electrical Troubleshooting. If there is no continuity, repair/replace the faulty components and retest.
