Ignition Lock Solenoid: Testing and Inspection

1. Inspect key interlock solenoid, as follows:
a. Disconnect the solenoid connector.





b. Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between terminals 7 and 8.
Standard resistance: 12-17 ohms.
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the solenoid.





c. Apply battery positive voltage between terminals. Check that an operation noise can be heard from the solenoid. If the solenoid does not operated, replace the solenoid.
