Measure Linear Solenoid Resist-
ance at the Solenoid Connecto.:
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect the 2P connector
lrom the linear solenoid con
nector,
3. Measure the resistance ofthe
linear solenoid.
ls the resistance approx. 5.0 O?
Check Linear Solenoid for a Shon
Circuit:
1. Disconnect the B 125P) connec-
tor from the PCM.
2. Check for continuity between
the body ground and the B1
terminal and 82 terminal inda-
vidually.
Repair short in the wires bgtwoen
the Bl and 82 terminab and the
lineti solsnoid.
