Savana 3500 V8-6.6L DSL Turbo VIN 6 (2007)
view all the data in anticipation of the fault. The snapshot contains information around a trigger point that you have determined. Only a single data list
may be recorded in each snapshot. The Scan Tool has the ability to store 2 snapshots. The ability to record 2 snapshots allows comparing hot versus cold
and good versus bad vehicle scenarios. The snapshots are stored on a first-in, first-out basis. If a third snapshot is taken, the first snapshot stored in the
memory will be lost.
Snapshots can be 1 of 2 types:
-
Snapshot - taken from the Snapshot menu choice
-
Quick Snapshot - taken from the Data Display soft key choice, does not contain DTC information
When a snapshot is taken, it is recorded on the memory card and may contain as many as 1200 frames of information. Because the snapshot is recorded
onto the memory card, snapshots are not lost if the Scan Tool is powered down.
The snapshot replay screen has a plot soft key that can be of great value for intermittent diagnosis. The snapshot plot feature can help you to quickly
determine if a sensor is outside of its expected values by plotting 3 parameters at a time. The data will be displayed both graphically and numerically
showing the minimum and maximum values for all frames captured. This is helpful, especially if the fault occurs only once and does not set a DTC.
Testing for a Short to Voltage
TESTING FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
NOTE: Refer to Test Probe Notice.
The following procedure measures the voltage at a selected point in a circuit.
1. Disconnect the electrical harness connector for the circuit being tested, if necessary.
2. Enable the circuit and/or system being tested. Use the following methods:
-
Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
-
Turn ON the engine.
-
Turn ON the circuit and/or system with a scan tool in Output Controls.
-
Turn ON the switch for the circuit and/or system being tested.
3. Select the V (AC) or V (DC) position on the DMM.
4. Connect the positive lead of the DMM to the point of the circuit to be tested.
5. Connect the negative lead of the DMM to a good ground.
6. The DMM displays the voltage measured at that point.
Testing for Continuity
TESTING FOR CONTINUITY
NOTE: Refer to Test Probe Notice to.
The following procedures verify good continuity in a circuit.
With a DMM
1. Set the rotary dial of the DMM to the ohm position.
2. Disconnect the power feed (i.e. fuse, control module) from the suspect circuit.
3. Disconnect the load.
4. Press the MIN MAX button on the DMM.
5. Connect one lead of the DMM to one end of the circuit to be tested.
6. Connect the other lead of the DMM to the other end of the circuit.
7. If the DMM displays low or no resistance and a tone is heard, the circuit has good continuity.
With a Test Lamp
IMPORTANT: Only use the test lamp procedure on low impedance power and ground circuits.
1. Remove the power feed (i.e. fuse, control module) from the suspect circuit.
2. Disconnect the load.
3. Connect one lead of the test lamp to one end of the circuit to be tested.
4. Connect the other lead of the test lamp to battery positive voltage.
5. Connect the other end of the circuit to ground.
6. If the test lamp illuminates (full intensity), then the circuit has good continuity.
