Solenoid Pull-In Coil Test

  1. Disconnect starter field lead from solenoid. Ensure field lead does not touch starter housing. See Figure. Using 12-volt battery, connect negative battery lead to solenoid field lead terminal.
  2. Connect another negative battery lead to starter housing. Connect positive battery positive lead to solenoid ST (start) terminal. Pinion gear should extend quickly and completely when solenoid is energized. If pinion gear does not operate as described, replace solenoid. If pinion gear operates as described, go to SOLENOID HOLD-IN COIL TEST and PINION GEAR RETURN TEST below.
