How do you check a starter solenoid for a 1995 Ford truck?

To check the starter solenoid on a 1995 Ford truck, first ensure the battery is fully charged and the connections are clean and tight. Then, locate the solenoid, usually mounted on the fender or near the starter. Use a multimeter to test for voltage at the solenoid terminal when the ignition key is turned to the start position; if there's no voltage, the solenoid may be faulty. Additionally, you can perform a bench test by applying power directly to the solenoid; it should click and engage if functioning properly.
