Inspection and Checking

  1. VERIFY customer concern.
  1. Visually CHECK for any obvious mechanical or electrical damage.

Visual Inspection

Mechanical Electrical
  • Coolant level
  • Electric booster heater mounting
  • Fuses
  • Wiring harness
  • Connectors
  1. RECTIFY any obvious causes for a concern found during the visual inspection before performing any further tests. CHECK the operation of the system.
  1. If the concern persists after the visual inspection, CARRY OUT a fault diagnosis on the powertrain control module (PCM) and the charging system with WDS and RECTIFY any displayed faults in accordance with the fault description. CHECK the operation of the system.
  1. For vehicles without any stored faults, PROCEED in accordance with the Symptom Chart.
  1. Following checking or elimination of the fault and after completion of operations, the fault memories of all vehicle modules must be READ OUT and any stored faults must be DELETED. READ OUT all fault memories again following a road test.
