Switch the ignition to on. Put your meter to 12VDc. Touch the hot wire going to the solenoid with the meter positive probe . Touch the meter negative probe to ground. If you have 12VDc and you don't hear a click when you turn on the switch, the solenoid is probably bad. If you don't have 12VDc, check fuses and the wire going to the solenoid.
