NOTE:
The 1998, 1999 or 2000 Rodeo / Amigo Electrical Troubleshooting Manual can assist in locating the vehicle ground distribution (i.e. ground contact
points).
^
Perform a voltage drop test at the main ground points.
^
If the voltage drop test fails, then inspect and clean both the bolt and contact point.
^
Verify and correct idle settings (if needed) as described in the workshop manual.
^
If the repair procedure on this step solves the high idle condition, then return the vehicle to the customer. If the repair procedure on this step
does not solve the high idle condition, then go to step 2 (16 pin Blue Connector).
A.
Locate P-6/P10 ground in the engine compartment.
B.
Remove P-6/P-10 ground terminal and bolt for ground contact inspection.
^
Inspect ground contact area for corrosion.
