DANGER
Make sure that electrical current or air pressure
is removed before performing any work. A part
may be energized even if the ignition switch is
OFF. A part may be under pressure even if all
tanks are empty. Before performing any work
on the vehicle, refer to wiring diagrams and/or
air schematics to thoroughly understand the
system.
NOTE
When the ignition switch is set to the OFF
position, the electrical components are not
energized except for the MCM (Master Chassis
Module), the battery equalizer, the preheater
system and some electronic modules; which
are energized during 15 minutes after the
ignition has been set to the OFF position. Prior
to working on one
components, set themain electrical shut- off
switch to the OFF position. If the vehicle will not
be operated for a long period (more than 2
weeks), it is recommended, in order to prevent
the batteries from discharging, to trip the main
circuit breakers located in the main power
compartment to stop the small current drawn by
the radio preset station memory, the MCM
memory and the instrument cluster clock. Note
that the radio station presets will be erased,
same thing for the diagnostic codes history and
the instrument cluster clock will have to be
