Ignition Switch Continuity Test

Continuity Test






Disconnect the multiple connector from the ignition switch. Test the switch continuity as described in the following illustration. Connect a self-powered test lamp or ohmmeter between the blade terminals indicated on the chart. No continuity between any blade and chassis ground should exist in any switch position except the proof Circuits, 41 and 977 in the START position only.

For an "engine won't crank" condition, determine if the condition exists with the shift lever in both PARK and NEUTRAL positions before performing the ignition switch continuity test. If the "no-crank" condition occurs in one shift lever position but not the other, a more probable cause is the neutral start switch located on the transaxle.
