Symptom Troubleshooting Index
NOTE:' The numbers in the table showthetroubleshooting sequence.. Before troubleshooting.- check the No, 10 (7.5A) and No. 4 (10A) fuses in the under-dash fuse/relay box. and the No. 7 (15A) fuse in theunder-hood fuse/relay box,- check that the horn sounds.- check the tachometer to see if it works properly.- check the speedometer lo see if it works properly.

NOTE:. Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted
surfaces.. To avoid damage, unplug the wiring connectors
carefully while holding the connector portion.. Mark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnection.
Also, be sure that they do not contact other wiring orhoses, or interfere with other parts.
1. Secure the hood in the wide open position (support
rod in the lower hole).
2. Make sure you have the anti-theft code for the radio,
then write down the frequencies for the radio'spreset buttons.

Check that the transmission shifts into gear
smoothly.
Inspect for fuel leaks. Turn the ignition switch ON(ll) {do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump
runs for about 2 seconds and pressurizes the fuel
line. Repeat this operation two or three times, then
check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
Refillthe engine with engine oil (see page 8-5).
Refill the transmission with fluid (see page 13-3).
Refill the radiator with engine coolant, and bleed
air from the cooling system with the heater valve
open (see page 10-6).
Perform the engine control module (ECM) idle learnprocedure (see page 11-139).
Inspect the idle speed (see page 1 1-138).
Inspect the ignition timing (see page 4-17).
Check the wheel alignment {see page 18-4).
Enter the anti-theft code for the radio, then enter
the customer's radio station presets.
