Troubleshooting Procedures
(cont'd)
C. lf the inspection for a particular code requires voltage or resistance checks at the TCM or PCM connectors, removethe driver's side kick panel, and unbolt the TCM, and at the PCM connectors, remove the passenger's side kickpanel, and unbolt the PCM. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and connect the backprobe sets and a digital multimeteras described below. Check the system according to the procedure described for the appropriate code(s) listed onthe following pages.

How to use lhe Backprob€ SE{
Connect the backprobe adapters to the stacking patch cords, and connect the cords to a multimeter, Using the wireinsulation as a guide for the contoured tip of the backprobe adapter, gently slide the tip into the connector from thewire side until comes in contact with the terminal end of the wire.

CAUTION: Carelully remove the ignition wires bypulling on the rubber boots, Do not bend the wires; you
might break them inside.
'1. Check the condition of the ignition wire terminals. lf
any terminal is corroded, clean it, and if it is broken
or distorted, replace the ignition wire.
Check for broken,corroded, and bentlermrnals.IGNITION WIRE
