CONTINUITY TEST

NOTE: Do not disconnect wires from AC condenser

motor.

(1) Remove AC condenser motor (WP 0025).

(2) Set multimeter switch to ohms.

(3) Place positive (+) probe of multimeter on red wire at

AC condenser motor terminal.

(4) Place negative (-) probe of multimeter on red wire at

AC condenser motor solenoid terminal.

(a) If there is no continuity, repair AC condenser

motor red wire (see Appendix A). Verify repair,

go to Step 15 of this fault.

(b) If there is continuity, go to Step 12 of this fault.

CONTINUITY TEST

(1) Set multimeter switch to ohms.

(2) Place positive (+) probe of multimeter on ground

wire at AC condenser motor terminal.

(3) Place negative (-) probe of multimeter on ground

wire at other end.

(a) If there is no continuity, repair AC condenser

motor ground wire (see Appendix A). Verify

repair, go to Step 15 of this fault.

(b) If there is continuity, replace AC condenser

motor (WP 0025). Verify repair, go to Step 15 of

this fault.
