- C WHT/BLU wire
- D BLK/YEL wire
- E YEL/GRN wire
- Disconnect the BLK/YEL, WHT/BLU, YEL/GRN, and BLU wires from the ignition control module (ICM).
- Turn the ignition switch ON. Check for voltage between the BLK/YEL wire and body earth. There should be battery voltage.
- If there is no battery voltage, check for an open in the BLK/YEL wire between the ignition coil and the ICM.
- If there is battery voltage, go to step 4.
- Check for voltage between the WHT/BLU wire and body earth. There should be battery voltage.
- If there is no battery voltage, check for:
- faulty ignition coil.
- an open in the WHT/BLU wire between the ignition coil and the ICM.
- If there is battery voltage, go to step 5.
- If there is no battery voltage, check for:
