Positive Battery Cable Resistance Test

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 15 other vehicles, including the 2001 Plymouth Neon, 2001 Dodge Ram Wagon, 2001 Dodge Ram Van, 2001 Dodge Pickup, and 2001 Dodge Neon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Remove starter heat shield (if equipped) to gain access to starter solenoid connections. Connect voltmeter negative lead to starter solenoid battery terminal and voltmeter positive lead to positive battery terminal.
  2. Crank engine and observe voltmeter. If voltmeter indicates more than 0.2 volt, repair poor connection between battery cable and starter solenoid or replace positive battery cable.
