No starter 850 1996

OK Dennis On Richmond, been through there.
I want to clarify how to diagnose the NO STARTER problem using the
service socket a wire jumper and a voltmeter.

The service socket "17/1" will help you identify the problem as follows:



The drawing shows where the service socket is in the starter circuit
It is after the alarm relay "2/28" contacts.

You can test the Tranny Range selector and starter solenoid by
hooking the service socket to +12VDC (With the key in RUN position)
The car should start.

You can turn the key to Start position and measure +12VDC at the service socket
If +12VDC The Ignition switch and 2/28 alarm relay contacts are OK

Do it and report back, these two little tests should not take too long.

Bill
