TEST PROCEDURE 1 – BATTERY VOLTAGE AND DC PLUG AND RECEPTACLE
See General Warning, Section 1, Page 1-1. See additional WARNING on page 5-1.
1. Check the DC plug and the vehicle charger receptacle for damage, dirt, corrosion, or any condition that
might prevent a sound electrical connection.
2. Inspect the receptacle contacts to ensure that they are not damaged and they are firmly seated within the
receptacle.
3. Check the wire connections to the charger receptacle:
• DS vehicles:
Verify that the 10-gauge red wire from the charger receptacle is connected to the positive
(+) post of battery no. 1
(Figure 5-2, Page 5-3)
.
• Precedent vehicles:
Verify that the 10-gauge red wire from the charger receptacle is connected to the
positive (+) post of battery no. 1
(Figure 5-3, Page 5-4)
.
DS vehicles only:
3.1. Make sure the two nuts that secure the two 10-gauge black wires to the receptacle fuse assembly
are tight
(Figure 5-8, Page 5-13)
.
3.2. Check the connections of the 18-gauge gray wire from the receptacle to the sense lead fuse, and
from the sense lead fuse to the onboard computer gray wire.
