Example: Typical Safety Relay
- Turn ignition on. Using a voltmeter, check for battery voltage at Blue wire of safety relay. See Fig 1
. If voltage is not present, check for blown 10-amp fuse or open circuit between fuse and relay.
- Turn ignition off. Disconnect safety relay connector. Using ohmmeter, check for continuity across relay's Black wire and Blue wire terminals. Reverse ohmmeter leads. Continuity should only exist in one direction. Connect voltmeter positive lead to Red/Blue wire terminal. Connect negative voltmeter lead to Black wire terminal. Apply battery voltage to Blue wire terminal and ground to Black wire terminal. Voltmeter should show battery voltage while relay is energized.
