CHECKING CABLES AND WIRES
1.
Check the terminal for tightness.
2.
Check terminals and wires for corrosion from battery
electrolyte, etc.
3.
Check terminals and wires for open circuits.
4.
Check wire insulation and coating for damage, cracks
and degrading.
5.
Check the conductive parts of terminals for contact
with other metallic parts (vehicle body and other
parts).
6.
Check grounded parts to verify that there is complete
continuity between their attaching bolt(s) and the ve-
hicle’s body.
7.
Check for incorrect wiring.
8.
Check that the wiring is so clamped to the prevent
contact with sharp corners of the vehicle body, etc.
or hot parts (exhaust manifold, etc.)
9.
Check that the wiring is clamped firmly to provide
enough clearance from the fan pulley, fan belt and
other rotating or moving parts.
10. Check that the wiring has a little space so that it can
vibrate between fixed and moving parts such as the
vehicle body and the engine.

CHECK FUSES
A blade type fuse test taps provided to allow checking the
fuse itself without removing if from the fuse box. The fuse
is good if the test lamp lights up when one lead is con-
nected to the test taps (one at a time) and the other lead
is grounded.
(Turn the ignition switch so that the fuse circuit becomes
operative)
