1 | Did you review the system circuit description and perform the necessary inspections? | -- | Go to Step 2 | |
2 | Verify the fault is present. Does the system operate normally? | -- | Go to Testing for Electrical Intermittents in Wiring Systems | Go to Step 3 |
3 |
Does the test lamp illuminate? | -- | Go to Step 4 | Go to Step 5 |
4 | Using the J 35616 adapter, connect a test lamp between ground of the suspect shock to a battery positive voltage (B+) circuit. Refer to Circuit Testing in Wiring Systems. Does the test lamp illuminate? | -- | Go to Step 6 | Go to Step 8 |
5 | Important: Take care not to damage the pins in the connector. Using a J 39200 and J 35616 , measure the resistance of the suspect shock. Front: the red probe to the center pin of the shock and the black probe to the rod of the shock. Rear: red probe to terminal A, black to terminal B. Does the resistance measure near the specified range? | 11-21 ohms | Go to Step 9 | Go to Step 7 |
6 |
Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 10 | -- |
7 | Replace the shock absorber. Refer to Shock Absorber Replacement in Front Suspension or Shock Absorber Replacement in Rear Suspension. Did you complete the replacement? | -- | Go to Step 10 | -- |
8 | Repair the open in the selectable ride switch control circuit between the shock and the Engine Wiring Harness Junction Block. Refer to Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you complete the repair? | -- | Go to Step 10 | -- |
9 | Repair the open in the shock ground circuit. Refer to Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you complete the repair? | -- | Go to Step 10 | -- |
10 | Operate the system in order to verify the repair. Did you correct the condition? | -- | System OK | Go to Step 3 |
