Component Testing

Relay Test

  1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
  2. Remove the appropriate component:
    • KR27C Starter Pinion Solenoid Actuator Relay
    • KR27 Starter Relay
  3. Test for 70 to 110 ohms between the test points: Component terminal 85 & 86
    • If not between 70 and 110 ohms 

      Replace the appropriate component: KR27C Starter Pinion Solenoid Actuator Relay or KR27 Starter Relay

    • Go to next step: If between 70 and 110 ohms 
  4. Test for infinite resistance between the test points:
    • Component terminal 30 & 85
    • Component terminal 30 & 86
    • Component terminal 30 & 87
    • Component terminal 85 & 87
    • Component terminal 86 & 87
    • If less than infinite resistance 

      Replace the appropriate component: KR27C Starter Pinion Solenoid Actuator Relay or KR27 Starter Relay

    • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
  5. Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Component terminal 86 & 12 V

    Connect a jumper wire between the test points: Component terminal 85 & Ground

  6. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Component terminal 30 & 87
    • If 2 ohms or greater 

      Replace the appropriate component: KR27C Starter Pinion Solenoid Actuator Relay or KR27 Starter Relay

    • Go to next step: If less than 2 ohms 
  7. All OK.
