Starter Solenoid - Solenoid M-Terminal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Ford Econoline. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Make sure the starter solenoid is isolated from the starter motor. Using the 73 Digital Multimeter, check for continuity between the S-and M-terminals. Also check for continuity between the S-terminal and starter motor body. If either check shows no continuity, install a new starter motor.
  2. Check for continuity between the M-terminal and the B-terminal. If there is continuity, install a new starter motor.
