MALFUNCTION

TEST OR INSPECTION

CORRECTIVE ACTION

Test 2. Disconnect battery ground

ALL VEHICLE

cable (WP 0126 00) and test

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS

battery cables as follows:

INOPERATIVE (Contd)

1. Set multimeter to RX 1 scale.

2. Check for continuity of

1. If resistance is greater than 1 ohm,

battery cables no. 6 and 68

repair or replace battery cables

and for worn or frayed

insulation.

2. If insulation is worn or frayed,

repair or replace battery cables

3. Check continuity of battery

1. If resistance measure greater than

cable no. 7 to frame ground.

1 ohm, clean cable no. 7 connection

at right-hand frame rail.

2. If continuity is still greater than

1 ohm, repair or replace battery

4. Connect battery ground cable

(WP 0126 00) and proceed to

test 3.

Test 3. Check for battery voltage at

starter solenoid.

1. Set multimeter to a voltage

range that will measure

24 VDC.

2. Check lead no. 6 at contact 2

If battery voltage is not present, clean

of starter solenoid for battery

connections of lead no. 6 at contact

voltage.

no. 2 of starter solenoid (WP 0088 00).
