Checking the control module

Check the relay coil driver circuit for a short-circuit to supply voltage by taking a voltmeter reading at terminal #2 in the relay base.

For further information about a short-circuit to supply voltage.

HINT: The voltage between terminal #2 and ground should be approximately 0 V.
