I suggest you look at the recent paper by Frank Kleibergen and Sophocles Mavroeidis 
"Weak Instrument Robust Tests in GMM and the New Keynesian Phillips Curve,? 
forthcoming in the Journal of Business and Economic Statistics. A preliminary 
version of this paper can be downloaded from Frank's webpage at Brown University 
Economics dept. Be warned - the weak instrument procedures require the continuous 
updating GMM estimator (which is implemented in the GMM function in S+FinMetrics)

Hi,

I would like to know how to  test Underidentification, weak
identification, and instrument relevance in GMM.

Thanks.
