Starter Motor - Positive Circuit Test

Note. Always make the digital multimeter connection at the component terminal rather than at the wiring end of the connector. Making a connection at the wiring end of the connector could result in false readings because the meter will not pick up a high resistance between the wiring connector and component.

Starter Motor - Ground Circuit Test

REFER to: Health and Safety Precautions ( HEALTH AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ).

A slow cranking condition can be caused by resistance in the ground or return portion of the cranking circuit. Check the voltage drop in the ground circuit.
