TEST PROCEDURE

1.Turn engine off.

2.Unlatch, lift and secure the left side door. Note that there are latches at both ends of the door.

3.Using the 5/16" nut driver, remove the three screws holding the fan guard. Remove the fan guard.

4.Locate leads #56 and #57 on the idler sole- noid. See Figure F.6 and the Wiring Diagram. Using the 5/16" wrench, remove the leads from the solenoid.

5.Using the external voltage supply, apply 12VDC to the idler solenoid terminals. Attach positive (+) to the terminal where lead #56 was connected. The solenoid should activate.

6.The solenoid should deactivate when the 12VDC is removed.

7.If the solenoid does not operate properly, check for a mechanical restriction in the linkage or a missing spring.

8.If the linkage is intact and the solenoid does not operate correctly when 12VDC is applied, the solenoid may be faulty. Replace. Normal solenoid coil resistance is approximately 9 ohms.

9.When the test is complete and the problem repaired, be sure to reconnect leads #56 and #57 to the idler solenoid.

10.Close and latch the left side door.
