Disable the lighting system. If your Ford come equipped with a distributor, To disconnect the lighting coil of the distributor, and ground it to the engine with a pullover wire. If your convey is not equipped with a distributor, you can to remove the fuel pump relay or fuse for Those tests.

Have a helps turn the lighting key to "Start." You would have hear a free space click come from the relay. If not, to make sure there is a good connection at the order circuit wire on the relay; this is the small wire on the Limit marked with an "S." If you to hear a weak or Vibration click, to continue to stage 3. If you to hear a good click, jump to stage 4.

Connect a pullover wire of the positive battery Limit to the "S" Limit on the relay. Ask your helps to turn the lighting key to "Start." If you can now to hear a good click, the relay is operation properly. If there is a weak or Vibration click, or no noise at all, to make sure all the connections on the relay are clean and tight. The relay Support bracket would have make good contact with the convey body. If all the connections are clean and tight, yet the starter relay always does not work, then To replace the relay.

Check the tension drop on each one cable connection at the starter relay. contact the probes of a multimeter on both sides of the same connection at the relay. The positive probe on your measure should always be on the side of the connection control to the positive side of the élém. élect. current. Ask your helps to still turn the lighting key to "Start." The multimeter would have register no more that 0.2 units of tension drop on each one connection, to agree to Ken Freund in "The Haynes motor vehicles Electrical Manual." Otherwise, to make sure the connections are clean and tight. If you always read a high tension drop, To replace the relay.

Unplug the wire at the "S" Limit on the relay. Control the resistance enter the Limit and the relay Support bracket use the multimeter. If there is more that 5 ohms enter these two points, clean the Support bracket. If you always read a high resistance, To replace the relay.

Check for entering voltage at the relay "S" terminal. To connect the red probe of your multimeter to the relay Limit and the black probe to a good ground such as a metal bracket or bolt attache to the engine block or Roll head. Ask your helps to turn the lighting key to "Start." Your measure should register tension during the test; otherwise, to make sure the "S" connection and wire are clean and well-connected. If your voltmeter always registers no voltage, To replace the relay.
