Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the IPC.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition 1 voltage circuit and a ground.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition 1 voltage circuit and the IPC ground circuit.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the IPC
| ⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, repair the ignition 1 voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, repair the IPC ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
