TEST
Before testing
any
of
"che
components, pedarm
the
folIowing
checks:
The
most common cause for control failure
is corrosion on
connectors. Therefore, dis-
connecting and reconnecting wires
will
be
necessary throughout test
p~ocedetres.
a
All
testsichecks should be rnsnde
with
a
VOM
or
DVM
having a sensitivity
of
20.1300
ohms-per-volt
DC,
or greater.

Check
ail connectjoras before repiacing
mrnponents: looking for broken or loose
wires, failed terminals, or wires not pressed
int~
connectors
far
enough.
Resistance checks must be made
with
power cord unphgged from outlet, and
with
wiring harness or connectors discon-
nected.
