emv coil test??

Post by thejackal01 » 10 May 2013 04:06 pm

in the manual it says the coil should be resistance of 33 ohms. is this test done with the diode still soldered in or out all together.

I have current when engine runs at 1800rpm or over but no click on solenoid. kickdown has lots of air going through, but still nothing on the other end of the emv

any thoughts??

ok coil and diode test done!!!

diode....... works one way as it should

coil.........resistance reading bounces all over the place. will stay in one position for a few secs or mins...then biunces around like something on random drug testing

so looks like I may need a coil.....................what are my chances with this????
