Not sure of the location.. not particularly familiar with that vehicle. You should always be getting power at the 30 pole with the test light. With the key in the start position, you should see power at the 86 pole. Take a jumper wire and jump power from the 30 pole to the 87 pole. If the starter engages but didn't with the relay installed, there's your problem. If it doesn't, run the test light ground to the 87 pole and the probe to the 30 pole... if you don't get a light at that point, your problem is in the 87 circuit to the starter.

How do you test the starter relay on a 1995 ford ranger?
Make sure truck is in neutral jump across small (trigger) terminal and cable that runs to starter if vehicle "turns over" relay is bad
Where is the starter relay on a 2000 ranger with 3.0?
The starter relay is located in the power distribution box under the hood. Swap it with the heater blower relay (same part number) to check it. This Ford vehicle does not have a remote starter solenoid mounted on the firewall/inner fender. The starter solenoid is mounted directly to the starter itself.
My 1996 Ford Ranger only clicks when the key is turned could it be the starter and where is it found?
It can be a dead battery, or a bad starter, the click sound you hear is from the starter relay mounted on the inner fender near the battery, use a test lite and make sure power is coming out of the relay and going to the starter, always replace both the starter and relay if either is found to be bad
How do you replace a starter relay switch on a 1998 ford expedition?
Starter Relay Test Place transmission in Park. Apply parking brake. Check for battery voltage between starter relay battery terminal and ground. Connect jumper wire on starter relay between battery and ignition terminals. If engine does not crank, connect a second jumper wire to starter relay between ground terminal and good ground and repeat test. If engine cranks in step 3, transmission linkage is misadjusted or neutral safety switch is defective. If engine does not crank in step 3, starter relay is defective. Follow this step by step and you will pinpoint the problem.

1992 Ford E-350 diesel will not start - batteries starter test good but single click only?
If the battery and starter check out good and you are only getting a single click, the problem lies in the starter solenoid or relay. Not sure where the relay might be but the solenoid is usually where the positive battery from the starter connects to. There are at least two wires at the solenoid - the battery cable and a thin wire. check the remote starter solenoid usually monted on right side of engine bay
Why does the starter stay engaged on ford 460 motorhome?
If your starter stays engaged it is either your stater relay (solenoid) or your ignition switch.It is usually the relay,either mounted on your inner fender(earlier system)or on the starter itself.Follow the positive cable (red) from your battery,if it goes directly to your starter it is the later system.To test disconnect the ignition wire on the relay,the small gauge wire.If there is 2 small wires on the fender mounted relay you can disconnect them both if your not sure witch is ignition wire.Leave the 2 large wires connected.If it still is turning over it is your relay,if it stopped it is your ignition.If you have the stater mounted relay remove the small wire from the "S" terminal,and repeat as above.

Why won't a 1995 ford f150 4x4 with manual transmission start it has low voltage to the starting relay actuating terminal?
Load test the battery, than at the starter. You'll need 10+ volts to turn the motor over fast enough to start. If all is well then you most likely have a loose or corroded connection between the battery and starter relay.
