This test has been developed as a bench test of the control box.
A
Test Power
YES
Fuse OK; go to step A2
1 Check
Fuse
NO
Replace fuse. If the fuse continues
to blow, this may be an indication of a
situation with the power lines to the
control box or with the control box If
so, replace fuse and go to step A2
YES Voltage and Polarity is correct; go to test
B
YES Voltage is correct but polarity is
reversed. Reverse wires and retest.
2 Confirm power to the control box:
2.1 Remove connector to control box
2.2 Test voltage across terminals. Value should be
between 10V and 14V. Polarity must match
symbols on control box.
NO
Voltage is less than 10V. Check
vehicle power sources and correct as
required. If battery is OK, check wire
continuity to power plug and repair as
required
B
Test Control Box Function
For these tests:
•
Refer to the schematic on page 16:
•
Remove all plugs from the control box except for the power connector.
•
Place the positive lead of a voltmeter on pin B (motor) and the negative lead of voltmeter on pin A..
YES
Voltage OK; go to step B1.4
1
Measure the “Power On” Setting
1.1 Place a jumper between pins 6 and 8 (this will
simulate “Power On”.
1.2 Place a second jumper between pins 11 and 12
(this will simulate the “Retract Function”
1.3 Does voltage equal –10V to –14V?
NO
Control box is defective - replace
YES
Voltage OK; go to step B2
1.4 Move the second jumper between pins 12 and 13
this will simulate the “Extend Function”
1.5 Does voltage equal +10V to +14V?
NO
Control box is defective - replace
YES
Voltage OK; go to step B2.4
Measure the “Wind Smart On” Setting
2.1 Place a jumper between pins 7 and 8 (this will
simulate “Wind Smart On”.
2.2 Place a second jumper between pins 11 and 12
(this will simulate the “Retract Function”
2.3 Does voltage equal –10V to –14V?
NO
Control box is defective - replace
YES
Voltage OK; return to diagnostic
2
2.4 Move the second jumper between pins 12 and 13
this will simulate the “Extend Function”
2.5 Does voltage equal +10V to +14V?
NO
Control box is defective - replace
