Solenoid Valve Test

Disconnect solenoid valve connector. Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance of solenoid valve. See Fig 1 . Resistance should be 3.4-6.9 ohms. Apply 12 volts to one connector lead and ground other lead. Solenoid should operate with a noticeable sound. Replace solenoid if there is no continuity or solenoid does not operate.
