Getaway: High Speed II, The
Williams, 1992Just hoping for a confirmation of a diagnosis before I order a part. Right slingshot on a getaway is not working. Switch tests out fine. When I run the solenoid test it will not fire. I tested the voltage on the solenoid and I only get voltage from one of the terminals. On the other solenoids I get voltage from all of the terminals. Does this then mean the problem is the solenoid itself or do I need to do further testing?
Thanks!
A couple thoughts. You could ground the transistor ( metal tab on top ) briefly and see if it fires. If not you have a break in wiring from the transistor legs to and including the coil.
Me - I would dig around the solder joints at the coil lugs, dig around the tiny wire going from the coil to the coil lug. Easy to have a hard to see/find break there.
If you ground the transistor tab and it fires, then the transistor and across the board to the ribbon cable to the CPU is suspect.
LTG : )
Thanks! Sorry to be clueless but I am not sure what you mean by the transistor. Is this on or attached to the coil itself?
