  1. Calibrate an ohmmeter on high ohms scale and connect one lead to terminal "A" and the other lead to terminal"B".
    • The ohmmeter should show a very high reading (∞).
    • If the ohmmeter reading is very low (zero), replace the solenoid.
  2. Attach a positive battery jumper to terminal "C" and a negative battery jumper to terminal "D". The solenoid should close with an audible click.
    • The ohmmeter should show very low reading (zero).
    • If the ohmmeter reading is very high (∞), replace the solenoid.
  3. After installing the solenoid, coat all wires and terminals, except the battery "+" connection, with OMC Black Neoprene Dip.
