Diagnosis

Special tool
(A) : 09932-75020 (Connector Test Adapter Kit)
This must be used whenever a diagnostic procedure requests
checking or probing a terminal.
Using the appropriate adapter in the special tool will ensure that
no damage to the terminal will occur from the multimeter probe,
such as spreading or bending.
The adapter will also give an idea of whether contact tension is
sufficient, helping to find an open or intermittent open due to poor
terminal contact.
