7. Disconnect the black wire (1) of AC cord from charger AC circuit breaker.
8. Using a multimeter set for 200 ohms, place the red (+) probe on the terminal at the end of the black wire
(1). Test for continuity on each of the flat blades and then on the round pin of the AC plug. The tester
should indicate continuity on one flat blade only. If any other reading is obtained, the short AC cord must
be replaced.
9. Place the red (+) probe on the end of the green wire (2) and with the black probe check for continuity on
both flat blades and on the round pin of the AC plug. The tester should indicate continuity on only the
round pin. If any other reading is obtained, the AC cord and retractable cord reel must be tested inde-
pendently of each other.
10. Disconnect the AC cord white wire (4) from the control board. Place the red (+) probe on the white wire
(4) and check for continuity on both flat blades and on the ground pin of the AC plug. The tester should
indicate continuity on only one flat blade. If any other reading is obtained, the AC cord and retractable
cord reel must be tested independently of each other.
11. If the correct readings are obtained in all of the previous steps, the short AC cord is functioning properly.
Proceed to the following test procedure to test the retractable cord reel.
Retractable Cord Reel
Check continuity of the AC cord and retractable cord reel at the same time.
1. Disconnect the AC cord from the wall outlet.
2. Remove the battery charger from the vehicle.
See Onboard Charger Removal on page 4-33.
3. Remove the heatshrink from the AC cord connection between the short AC cord and the retractable cord
reel by gently cutting the heatshrink tubing
(Figure 4-19, Page 4-20)
.
4. Disconnect the short AC cord from the retractable cord reel.
5. Using a multimeter set for 200 ohms, place the red (+) probe in one of the flat blade openings of the cord
reel receptacle (1)
(Figure 4-21, Page 4-22)
. Test for continuity at the cord reel AC plug (2) on each of
the flat blades and then on the round pin of the AC plug. The tester should indicate continuity on one flat
blade only. If any other reading is obtained, the cord reel must be replaced.
