5. Check continuity of the AC circuit:
5.1. Carefully disconnect the two black wires attached to the contact terminals of the relay.
5.2. Connect a jumper wire between the two black wires.
5.3. With the relay bypassed, check the circuit across the AC cord plug blades (Figure 23-8).
5.4. If the reading is no continuity, check the wiring of the AC cord, the transformer primary coil leads,
and the jumper wire. If the charger is wired correctly, check individually the continuity of the AC
cord, the transformer primary coil, and the jumper wire.
