Component Tests: Relays
- Remove relay to be tested. Measure between relay terminal No. 5 and all other terminals. See Fig 1
. Resistance should be greater than 5 ohms between terminal No. 2 and all other terminals. Replace relay if resistance is not as specified. If resistance is as specified, go to next step.
- Connect battery positive to relay terminals No. 1 and No. 3. Measure voltage between relay terminal No. 4 and battery negative. If battery voltage does not exist at relay terminal No. 4, replace relay. If battery voltage exists at relay terminal No. 4, go to next step.
- With battery positive connected to terminals No. 1 and No. 3, connect battery negative to relay terminal No. 2. Measure voltage between relay terminal No. 5 and battery negative. Battery voltage should exist at relay terminal No. 5. Replace relay if voltage is not as specified.
