- With the ignition ON, the engine OFF, and the solenoid enabled with a scan tool, observe the relay and the solenoid while manipulating all related wiring and connectors.
- If manipulation does affect the relay or the solenoid, repair the harness or connector.
- With the ignition ON, the engine OFF, and the solenoid relay removed, connect a test lamp from the relay coil voltage supply circuit to ground and observe that the lamp illuminates.
- If the lamp does not illuminate, test the voltage supply circuit for high resistance or a short to ground.
- With the ignition ON, the engine OFF, and the solenoid relay removed, connect a test lamp from the relay coil voltage supply circuit to the relay control circuit and observe that the lamp does not illuminate.
- If the lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to ground or a faulty control module.
- With the ignition ON, the engine OFF, the solenoid relay removed, a test lamp connected from the relay coil voltage supply circuit to the relay control circuit, and the AIR solenoid enabled with a scan tool, observe that the test lamp illuminates.
