Silhouette V6-191 3.1L VIN D TBI (1995)
Serial Data: Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview
System Check
PERFORM BEFORE BEGINNING SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
1. Check for poor connections at C110, C210 and C215.
2. Attempt to establish communication with the same system on a different vehicle.
^
Check for a broken (or partially broken) wire inside of the insulation which could cause system malfunction but prove "GOOD" in a
continuity/voltage check with a system disconnected. These circuits may be intermittent or resistive when loaded, and if possible, should be
checked by monitoring for a voltage drop with the system operational (under load).
^
Check for proper installation of aftermarket electronic equipment which may affect the integrity of other systems (refer to General
Troubleshooting Procedures). See: Diagrams/Diagnostic Aids
