Hi All,
My fuel cutoff solenoid will not pull in, but if I manually push it in with the key on it will stay in. I do have voltage on the red wire with key on, but no voltage on white wire when key in start position. Thought it was the relay on the right side frame, whic i changed, but that didn't help. I started checking pins at the relay base with the following observations:
Pin 30 had power, so fuses are good (also checked em separately)
Pin 85 (switch power has voltage when key turned)
Checked continuity between pin 87 (device power) and plug to solenoid and had continuity.
Pin 86 (ground) would not give continuity with frame which I thought was odd. I looked at the outlet and it looks like there is a small diode or resister on the outgoing wire which is confusing.
I'm leaning toward the ground on the relay but haven't quit figured out how to test it without cutting the wire and putting another wire back to battery ground. I haven't had a helper to feel the relay switch when key is put to start position, so I can't tell if relay is switching (and my arms aren't long enough!). Thanks for any advice!
