  1. Turn ignition off. Disconnect ignitor connector and install Test Harness (49 H018 001). Using a needle-type ohmmeter, connect (+) lead to ground and (-) lead to single-pin test wire of test harness. See Fig 1 .
    CAUTION: Ensure ohmmeter is installed with (+) lead to ground and (-) lead to single-pin wire of test harness. DO NOT reverse leads or damage may result.
  2. Connect Ignitor Checker (49 F018 002) to other lead of test harness and to battery. Set ohmmeter to X1 scale.
