Magnetic Switch Pull-In Test

Magnetic Switch Pull-In Test:




1. Disconnect wire from M-terminal of magnetic switch.
2. Connect a 12V battery between S-terminal and M-terminal.


CAUTION: This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10 seconds) to prevent coil from burning.


3. If pinion moves out, then pull-in coil is good. If it doesn't, replace magnetic switch.
