Continuity Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Jeep Wrangler, 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and 1995 Jeep Cherokee. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Disconnect wire from solenoid field coil terminal (large terminal connected to starter body). Using an ohmmeter, test for continuity between field terminal and solenoid terminal (small terminal). Continuity should exist.
  2. Test for continuity between solenoid terminal and solenoid housing. Continuity should exist. If continuity does not exist in either test, solenoid has open circuit. Replace solenoid.
