Stratus Coupe V6-3.0L VIN H (2001)
1. VOLTAGE CHECK
1. Ground one lead wire of the test light. If a voltmeter is used instead of the test light, ground the grounding side lead wire.
2. Connect the other lead wire of the test light to the power side terminal of the switch connector. The test light should come on or the voltmeter
should indicate a voltage.
3. Then, connect the test light or voltmeter to the motor connector. The test light should not come on, or the voltmeter should indicate no voltage.
When the switch is turned on in this state, the test light should come on, or the voltmeter should indicate a voltage, with motor starting to run.
4. The circuit illustrated here is normal. If there is any problem, such as the motor failing to run, check voltages beginning at the connector
nearest to the motor until the faulty part is identified.
2. SHORT-CIRCUIT CHECK
Because the fuse has blown, it is probable that there is a short circuit. Follow the procedures below to narrow down the short-circuit location.
STEP 1. Remove the blown fuse and connect the test light across the fuse terminals (Switch: OFF).
Q: Does the test light illuminate?
YES: Short-circuit exists between the fuse block and the switch.Repair the harness between the fuse block and the switch.
NO: Go to Step 2.
