PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE
PROTECTIN” THE VEHICLE NOODAAC
If theIre is a likelihood of damaging painted or interior parts
during service operations, protect them with suitable covers
(such as seat covers. fender covers, etc.).
REMOVAL AND DISASSEMBLY
When checking a malfunction, find the cause of the problem.
If it is determined that removal and/or disassembly is neces-
sary, perform the work by following the procedures contained
in this, Workshop Manual.
If punch marks or mating marks are made to avoid error in
assembly and facilitate the assembly work, be sure to make
them in locations which will have no detrimental effect on
performance and/or appearances.
If an area having many parts, similar parts, and/or parts which
are’ symmetrical right and left is disassembled, be sure to
arrange the parts so that they do not become mixed during the
assembly process.
1. Arrange the parts removed in the proper order.
2. Determine which parts are to be reused and which are to
be replaced.
3. If bolts, nuts, etc., are to be replaced, be sure to use only
the exact size specified.,
SPECIAL TOOLS
If other tools are substituted for the special tools to do service
or repair work, there is the danger that vehicle parts might be
damaged, or the mechanic might be injured; therefore, be
sure to use the special tool whenever doing any work for
which the use of one is specified.
PARTS TO IBE REPLACED
If any of the following parts are removed, they must be
replaced with new parts.
1. Oil seals
2. Gaskets (except rocker cover gasket)
3. Packings
4. O-rings
5. Lock washers
6. Cotter pins
7. Self-locking nuts

12 INTRODUCTION - Precautions Before Service
(3) If an ammeter or similar instrument is to be connected
to a live-wire circuit, use tape to protect the wire, use a
i clamp to secure the wire, and make sure that there is
, no contact with any other parts.
(4’) Be sure to provide a fuse for the load circuit of the
optional equipment.
FooO281
TUBES AND OTHER RUBBER PARTS
Be careful to avoid spilling any gasoline, oil, etc.. because if it
adheres to any tubes or other rubber parts, they might be
adversely affected.
LUBRICANTS
In accordance with the instructions in this Workshop Manual,
apply the specified lubricants in the specified locations during
assembly and installation.
BRAKE FLUID
Be careful to avoid spilling any brake fluid, because if it
adheres to the vehicle body, the paint coat might be discol-
ored.
DOING SERVICE WORK IN GROUPS OF TWO OR
MORE TECHNICIANS
If the service work is to be done by two or more technicians
extra caution must be taken.

A jumper wire is used to close an open circuit. Never use one
to connect a power supply directly to a load.
4. Voltmeter
A voltmeter is used to measure the circuit voltage. Normally,
the positive (red lead) probe is applied to the point of voltage
measurement and the negative (black lead) probe to the body
ground.
5. Ohmmeter
An ohmmeter is used to.check continuity or measure resis-
tance of a switch or coil. If the measuring range has been
changed, the zero point must be adjusted before measure-
ment.
CHECKING SWITCHES In a circuit diagram, a switch is represented by a symbol and in the
idle state.
1. Normal open or normal close switch
Switches are classified into those which make the circuit open
and those which make the circuit closed when off.

2. SWITCH CONNECTION
This figure illustrates a complex switch. The switch plates
indicated by solid lines move in the direction of the arrow
when
operated. The continuity between terminals at each po-
sition is as indicated in the table below.
NOTE
M denotes continuity between terminals.
CHECKING RELAYS
1. When current flows through the coil of a relay, its core is
magnetized to attract the iron piece, closing (ON) the contact
at the tip of the iron piece. When the coil current is turned off,
the iron piece is made to return to its original position by a
spring, opening the contact (OFF).
2. By using a relay, a heavy current can be turned on and off
by a switch of small capacity. For example, in the circuit
shown here, when the switch is turned on (closed), current
flows to the coil of the relay. Then, its contact is turned on
(closed) and the light comes on. The current flowing at this
time to the switch is the relay coil current only and is very
small.
3. The relays may be classified into the normal open type and the
normal close type by their contact construction.
NOTE
The deenergized state means that no kurrent is flowing
through the coil and the energized state means that current is
flowing through the coil.
