  • Page 13 Following procedures shall be followed for testing conti&ty and voltage at connector in order to prevent improper contact and deterioration of waterproof in connector. Check shall be done by inserting a probing needle from harness side. When terminal stopper of connector is out of order, engagement of male and female terminals becomes improper even when con- nector itself is engaged perfectly and terminal sometimes slips out to rear side of connector.

Once the probable causel’& determined, parts to be checked can be limited to those associated with such probable causes. Therefore, Uhnec- supported by facts and must not be based on intuition only. If an attempt is made to solve a problem without going through correct steps for troubleshooting, the problem symptoms could become more complicated, resulting in failure to determine the causes correctly and making incorrect repairs.
  • Page 17 INSPECTION Check relay operation, blower motor rotation, light illumina- tion, etc. visually or aurally. The flow of current is’invisible but can be checked by the operation of the parts. ’ For example, if a headlight does not come on and a faulty fuse or poor grounding is suspected, replace the fuse with.a new one or ground the light to the body by a jumper wire to deter- mine which part is responsible for the problem.
  • Page 18 A jumper wire is used to close an open circuit. Never use one to connect a power supply directly to a load. A voltmeter is used to measure the circuit voltage. Normally, the positive (red lead) probe is applied to the point of voltage measurement and the negative (black lead) probe to the body ground.
