Notes:

  • ◆ This has the advantage of enabling the engine management system to remain fully operational even with the test box connected (for example, when testing signals while the engine is running).
  • ◆ The instructions for performing the individual tests indicate whether or not the engine control unit itself also needs to be connected to the test box.
