Diagnostic Procedure Ð Load Signal Ð (Cont'd)
EC-588

Basic InspectionNJEC0632Precaution:
Perform Basic Inspection without electrical or mechanical
loads applied;
+Headlamp switch is OFF,
+On vehicles equipped with daytime light systems, set
lighting switch to the 1st position to light only small
lamps.
+Air conditioner switch is OFF,
+Rear defogger switch is OFF,
+Steering wheel is in the straight-ahead position, etc.
1 INSPECTION START
1. Check service records for any recent repairs that may indicate a related problem.
2. Check the current need for scheduled maintenance, especially for fuel filter and air cleaner filter. Refer to MA-6, ªPeri-
odic Maintenanceº.
3. Open engine hood and check the following:
+Harness connectors for improper connections
+Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks, or improper connections
+Wiring for improper connections, pinches, or cuts
SEF142I
4. Start engine and warm it up to the normal operating temperature.
©GO TO 2.
2 PREPARATION FOR CHECKING IDLE SPEED
With CONSULT-II
Connect CONSULT-II to the data link connector.
Without CONSULT-II
Install diesel tacho tester to the vehicle.
©GO TO 3.
