INTRODUCTION
Before testing separate components or systems, perform procedures in BASIC TESTING article. Since many computer-controlled and monitored components set a diagnostic trouble code if they malfunction, also perform procedures in TESTS W/CODES article.
Note. Testing individual components does not isolate short or open circuits. Perform all voltage tests with a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance, unless stated otherwise in test procedure. Use ohmmeter to isolate shorted or open wiring harness.
Power & Ground Circuits
For testing of Engine Control Module (ECM) power and ground circuits, see PIN VOLTAGE CHART S article. See ECM LOCATION table for identifying ECM mounting locations.
