Troubleshooting  47

4.  In general, a continuity check on the cable 

is a good check; however, it may not find a 

intermittent short or open in one of the ca-
bles.

CONSOLE/CABLE CONNECTORS

In the connector there are numbers stamped in 
the rubber next to each female socket and male 
pins. Each connector is listed on the next page. 
The list includes pin and socket numbers, color 
of wire, and purpose or function of wire.

By using a voltmeter you can check to make sure 
cables are working properly. Always make sure 
of the pin and socket numbers before you start 
testing. Make sure pins are not bent or connec-
tor is not twisted.
