lever in NEUTRAL, and the accelerator pedal in the UP position, the reading should be no continuity.
With the accelerator pedal depressed, the reading should be continuity. If readings are incorrect,
replace the switch.
Test Procedure 5 - Solenoid:
1. Place the neutral lock-out cam in the SERVICE position, put the forward and reverse lever in the NEU-
TRAL position, and chock the wheels.
2. Remove the electrical component box cover.
3. Check that the wires are connected correctly and are tight. If they are not, rewire or tighten as neces-
sary.
4. Set a multimeter to ohms (
Ω
). Place the red (+) probe on one of the small posts of the solenoid and
place the black (-) probe on the other small post. The reading should be 14 to16 ohms. If the reading is
not within limits, replace the solenoid.
5. Disconnect the black (-) battery cable from the battery. Do not allow the cable to touch the frame or
other components of the vehicle.
6. Remove the 6 gauge white wire and the 16 gauge red wire from the large post of the solenoid. Do not
allow the wires to touch the frame or other components of the vehicle (Figure 12-21).
7. Set the multimeter to ohms (
Ω
). Connect the red (+) probe to one of the large posts of the solenoid and
connect the black (-) probe to the other large post (Figure 12-22, Page 98).
8. Connect the black (-) cable to the battery negative post.
9. Place the forward and reverse lever in NEUTRAL, and place the neutral lock-out cam in the SERVICE
position. Turn the key switch to the ON position. With the accelerator in the up position, the reading on
the multimeter should be no continuity. Depress the accelerator pedal and listen for the solenoid “click”.
There should be continuity. If either reading is incorrect, replace the solenoid.
10. With the forward and reverse lever still in NEUTRAL, and the neutral lock-out cam in the SERVICE
position, set the multimeter to DC volts (DC V) and place the red (+) probe on the large post that does
not have wires connected to it. Place the black (-) probe on the frame of the vehicle. Turn key switch to
ON position, depress accelerator pedal, and listen for solenoid “click”. The meter should read full bat-
tery voltage. If the reading is incorrect, replace the solenoid (Figure 12-23, Page 98).
11. Disconnect the 6 gauge black wire from the negative post of the battery before reconnecting the wires
to the solenoid.
