Auto Shutdown Relay

NOTE: For component location, see COMPONENT LOCATIONS  . For connector identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  . For circuit identification and wiring diagram, see WIRING DIAGRAMS article. After each repair procedure has been completed, reconnect all components.
  1. Turn the ignition off. Remove ASD Relay from Power Distribution Center (PDC). Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between ASD Relay terminals No. 85 and 86. If resistance is not 70-80 ohms, replace ASD Relay. If resistance is 70-80 ohms, go to next step.
  2. Check for continuity between ASD Relay terminals No. 30 and 87A. If continuity exists, go to next step. If continuity does not exist, replace ASD Relay.
  3. Check for continuity between ASD Relay terminals No. 30 and 87. If continuity exists, replace ASD Relay. If continuity does not exist, go to next step.
    4. CAUTION: DO NOT allow ohmmeter to contact ASD Relay terminals No. 85 or 86 during this step. Damage to ohmmeter may result.
  4. Using jumper wires, apply positive battery voltage to ASD Relay terminal No. 86 and ground terminal No. 85. Check for continuity between ASD Relay terminals No. 30 and 87, and between terminals No. 30 and 87A. Continuity should exist between terminals No. 30 and 87, and should not exist between terminals No. 30 and 87A. If ASD Relay does not pass continuity test, replace ASD Relay. If ASD Relay passes continuity test, test ASD Relay Control circuit. See appropriate ASD Relay Control circuit test.
