3.4 Electrical Circuit
(Solenoid-equipped attachments)
Use the electrical schematic and diagram shown and
follow the steps below:
1 Check the control knob circuit fuse. Replace if
necessary.
2 Check for loose electrical connections at the truck
ignition switch, control knob button, solenoid coil
terminals and diode.
3 Remove the diode from the solenoid coil terminal.
Test with an ohmmeter for high resistance in one
direction and no resistance in the other direction. If
there is no resistance in both directions, replace the
diode.
NOTE: When replacing the diode, the banded (+) end
must be connected to the coil and wiring as shown.
4 Use a voltmeter to determine if correct voltage is
present at the electrical leads when the button is
pressed.
• If there is no voltage to the solenoid, troubleshoot the
electrical circuit for shorts or open circuits.
• If there is insufficient voltage to the solenoid, check
the circuit for excessive voltage drop.
• If there is sufficient voltage to the solenoid, test for
coil continuity. Continue to Step 5.
5 Test the coil continuity by placing an ohmmeter test lead
on each solenoid coil terminal (ohmmeter on Rx1 scale).
• If there is an ohmmeter reading, the coil is good.
• If the coil is good, but the solenoid does not 'click'
when the control knob button is pressed, the solenoid
cartridge may be jammed. Refer to Section 4.5.
• If there is no ohmmeter reading, the coil is defective
and should be replaced. Refer to Section 4.5.
