Steven,
If you show any resitance at all in the vlave winding then it should be fine, although a higher resistance may suggest that some corrosion has occured on the coils increasing the resistance(?) If you removed the relay to test it, then you may not have tracked down the cource of your power supply. Does your car's interior lights still work? If not, replace the fuse becasue it provides power to the solenoid.
