Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch: Testing and Inspection





Push down on the reset button to make sure the switch is closed.

Use DVOM with LOS button On and measure voltage across both terminals of the inertia switch. If DVOM reading is greater than 0.3V, replace the inertia switch.

NOTE: In the closed position, the button can be depressed an additional 1/16-inch against a spring. This is a normal condition and does not adversely effect the switch operation.
