Using an Ohmmeter
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 1984 Volvo 245, 1984 Volvo 244, 1984 Volvo 242, 1983 Volvo 245, and 1983 Volvo 244. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Turn ignition off. Connect negative lead of an ohmmeter to ground. Connect the other lead to terminals 11 and 25 in turn. Ohmmeter should indicate 0 ohms at both points.
- If any terminal shows a high resistance or infinite resistance, the wire connected to that terminal must be traced and repaired. Wires are grounded at intake manifold.
