Test NS-9C - Repairing No Crank Condition
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Dodge Ram Wagon, 1995 Dodge Ram Van, 1995 Dodge Pickup, 1995 Dodge Dakota, and 1995 Dodge Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
For circuit and connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION . For wiring diagram, see WIRING DIAGRAMS section at the end of this article.
- If engine cranked, replace starter relay. Perform TEST VER-1. If engine did not crank, disconnect jumper wire. Note if starter solenoid clicked when jumper wire was connected. Disconnect starter relay output wire (Brown wire) from starter solenoid.
- Using an external ohmmeter, check resistance of Brown wire or Light Green/Black wire between starter relay connector and starter solenoid connector. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open in Brown wire or Light Green/Black wire. Perform TEST VER-1. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, reinstall starter relay.
- Check battery cables for high resistance. If either battery circuit had a voltage drop of more than 0.2 volt, repair battery circuit for high resistance. Perform TEST VER-1. If voltage Drop for either battery circuit is less than 0.2 volt, go to next step.
- If starter solenoid clicked when jumper wire was connected in step 1), repair starter for a mechanical failure. Perform TEST VER-1. If starter solenoid did not click when jumper wire was connected in step 1), replace starter solenoid. Perform TEST VER-1.
