- If the terminals look OK, go to step 4.
- Reconnect the connector and make these input tests at the connector.
- If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
- If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 5.
CONTROL UNIT INPUT TEST REFERENCE CHARTCavity Wire Test condition Test: Desired result Possible cause if desired result is not obtained 1 BLK Under all conditions Check for voltage to ground: There should be less than 1.0 V. - Poor ground (G503)
- An open in the wire
15 ORN Under all conditions Check for voltage to ground: There should be battery voltage. - Blown No. 23 (10 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box
- An open in the wire
16 WHT Ignition switch ACC (I) or ON (II) Check for voltage to ground: There should be battery voltage. - Blown No. 34 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box
- An open in the wire
- Disconnect the 28P connector again, and do this input test at the connector.
- If the test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
