Relay Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Suzuki XL7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the A/C Compressor Clutch Relay.
- Test for 137 ohms across the relay coil B+ and relay coil output controlled circuits.
- If the resistance is not close to the specified range, replace the relay.
- Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
- relay switch B+ and the relay switch controlled output.
- If less than infinite resistance, replace the relay
- Install a 20-amp fused jumper wire between relay coil B+ and 12 volts. Install a jumper wire between relay coil control and ground. Measure for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the relay switch B + circuit and relay switch controlled output circuit.
- If greater than 2 ohms, replace the relay.
