Central Timer Module: Vehicle Damage Warnings
Vehicle Damage Warnings
Before disconnecting any control module, make sure the ignition is "OFF". Failure to do so could damage the module.
When testing voltage or continuity at any control module, use the terminal side (not the wire end) of the connector. Do not probe a wire through the
insulation; this will damage it and eventually cause it to fail because of corrosion.
Be careful when performing electrical tests so as to prevent accidental shorting of terminals. Such mistakes can damage fuses or components. Also, a
second code could be set, making diagnosis of the original problem more difficult,
Road Testing A Complaint Vehicle
Some complaints will require a test drive as part of the repair verification procedure. The purpose of the test drive is to try to duplicate the diagnostic
code or symptom condition.
CAUTION: BEFORE ROAD TESTING A VEHICLE, BE SURE THAT ALL COMPONENTS ARE REASSEMBLED. DURING THE TEST
DRIVE, DO NOT TRY TO READ THE DRB III SCREEN WHILE IN MOTION. DO NOT HANG THE DRB III FROM THE REAR VIEW
MIRROR OR OPERATE IT YOURSELF. HAVE AN ASSISTANT AVAILABLE TO OPERATE THE DRB III.
