Electrical system
E
Apply 12 volts to the terminals ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) of the relay
and check the continuity between terminals B-M.
Do not apply the battery voltage to the starter
relay for more than five seconds to avoid
overheating and therefore damaging the
winding.
• Using a multi-tester, check that the winding is on
open circuit or if a resistance is present. The wind-
ing is in good condition if the value of the resistance
revealed is as indicated.
Multi-tester dial indication: ohm
Ω
Starter relay resistance
Standard: 5 Ohm ±10% 20°C
• Disconnect the cables ( 1 ) of the starter motor and
the positive cable of the battery from the relay .
TILT SENSOR
The fall sensor ( 1 ) acts on the engine control unit, inter-
rupting power when a vehicle tilt of more than 60°± 10°
for more than 3 seconds.
