How to use Diagnosis and Testing
procedures
Inspection and Verification
Visual Inspection Charts, Symptom Charts and
other information charts (such as diagnostic
routines) or supplement test procedures with
technical specifications will navigate the user to a
specific test procedure.
Symptom Chart
The symptom chart indicates symptoms, sources
and actions to address a condition.
Pinpoint Tests
For electrical systems, pinpoint test steps are used
to identify the source of a concern in a logical,
step-by-step manner. Pinpoint tests have two
columns: CONDITIONS and
DETAILS/RESULTS/ACTIONS.
The CONDITIONS column is used exclusively for
graphics and icons (with or without captions) and
the DETAILS/RESULTS/ACTIONS column
provides direction to another test step or specific
corrective actions.
The boxed numbers indicate the order in which the
described action is to be carried out.
Component Tests
A component test is used when a component is
tested in multiple pinpoint tests, or if a procedure
is too complicated to be formatted within a single
page of the pinpoint test.
Graphics
Test graphics show the measurement or test to be
carried out in a test step.
A representative tester graphic is used for
voltmeters and ohmmeters.
If multiple measurements are made in a single
graphic, the test leads are drawn with a solid line
until the test lead splits to indicate the multiple
measurements, at which point dashed lines are
used.
Breakout box type testers are represented by a
double circle test pin. Test pins are labeled with
the pin number.

Exhaust Fumes
These contain asphyxiating, harmful and toxic
chemicals and particles such as carbon oxides,
nitrogen oxides, aldehydes, lead and aromatic
hydrocarbons. Engines should be run only under
conditions of adequate exhaust extraction or
general ventilation and not in confined spaces.
Gasoline (petrol) engine
There may not be adequate warning of odor or of
irritation before toxic or harmful effects arise. These
may be immediate or delayed.
Diesel engine
Soot, discomfort and irritation usually give
adequate warning of hazardous fume
concentrations.
Fibre Insulation
See alsoDusts.
Used in noise and sound insulation.
The fibrous nature of surfaces and cut edges can
cause skin irritation. This is usually a physical and
not a chemical effect.
Precautions should be taken to avoid excessive
skin contact through careful organization of work
practices and the use of gloves.
Fire
See also Welding,Foams,Legal Aspects.
Many of the materials found on or associated with
the repair of vehicles are highly flammable. Some
give off toxic or harmful fumes if burnt.
Observe strict fire safety when storing and handling
flammable materials or solvents, particularly near
electrical equipment or welding processes.
Make sure, before using electrical or welding
equipment, that there is no fire hazard present.
Have a suitable fire extinguisher available when
using welding or heating equipment.
First Aid
Apart from meeting any legal requirements it is
desirable for someone in the workshop to be
trained in First Aid procedures.
Splashes in the eye should be flushed carefully
with clean water for at least ten minutes.
Soiled skin should be washed with soap and water.
In case of cold burns, from alternative fuels, place
affected area in cool to cold water.
Individuals affected by inhalation of gases and
fumes should be removed to fresh air immediately.
If effects persist, consult a doctor.
If liquids are swallowed inadvertently, consult a
doctor giving him the information on the container
or label. Do not induce vomiting unless this action
is indicated on the label.
Fluoroelastomer
See Viton.
Foams - Polyurethane
See also Fire.
Used in sound and noise insulation. Cured foams
used in seat and trim cushioning.
Follow manufacturers instructions.
Unreacted components are irritating and may be
harmful to the skin and eyes. Wear gloves and
goggles.
Individuals with chronic respiratory diseases,
asthma, bronchial medical problems, or histories
of allergic diseases should not work in or near
uncured materials.
The components, vapors or spray mists can cause
direct irritation, sensitivity reactions and may be
toxic or harmful.
Vapors and spray mists must not be inhaled. These
materials must be applied with adequate ventilation
and respiratory protection. Do not remove the
respirator immediately after spraying; wait until the
vapors/mists have cleared.
Burning of the uncured components and the cured
foams can generate toxic and harmful fumes.
Smoking, naked flames or the use of electrical
equipment during foaming operations and until
vapors/mists have cleared should not be allowed.
Any heat cutting of cured foams or partially cured

Health and Safety Precautions
Introduction
Many of the procedures associated with vehicle
maintenance and repair involve physical hazards
or other risks to health. This subsection lists,
alphabetically, some of these hazardous operations
and the materials and equipment associated with
them. Precautions necessary to avoid these
hazards are identified.
The list is not exhaustive and all operations and
procedures, and the handling of materials, should
be carried out with health and safety in mind.
Before using any product the Materials Safety Data
Sheet supplied by the manufacturer or supplier
should be consulted.
Acids and Alkalis
See alsoBattery Acids.
For example caustic soda, sulphuric acid.
Used in batteries and cleaning materials.
Irritant and corrosive to the skin, eyes, nose and
throat. Cause burns. Can destroy ordinary
protective clothing.
Avoid splashes to the skin, eyes and clothing. Wear
suitable protective impervious apron, gloves and
goggles. Do not breath mists.
Make sure access to eye wash bottles, shower and
soap are readily available for splashing accidents.
Display Eye Hazard sign.
Air Bags
See also Fire, Chemical Materials.
Highly flammable, explosive – observe No Smoking
policy.
Used as a safety restraint system mounted in the
steering wheel and passenger side of the
instrument panel.
The inflator contains a high-energetic propellant
which, when ignited, produces a VERY HOT GAS
(2500°C).
The gas generant used in air bags is Sodium Azide.
This material is hermetically sealed in the module
and is completely consumed during deployment.
No attempt should be made to open an air bag inflator as this will lead to the risk of exposure to
Sodium Azide. If a gas generator is ruptured, full
protective clothing should be worn when dealing
with the spillage.
After normal deployment, gloves and safety
goggles must be worn during the handling process.
Deployed air bags should be disposed of in a
plastic bag in accordance with local regulations at
an approved chemical waste site.
For additional information, refer to:
Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) Health and Safety
Precautions (100-00 General Information,
Description and Operation).
Air Conditioning Refrigerant
See also Chlorofluorocarbon, Chemical Materials
Highly flammable, combustible – observe No
Smoking policy.
Skin contact may result in frostbite.
Instructions given by the manufacturer must be
followed. Avoid naked lights, wear suitable
protective gloves and goggles.
If refrigerant comes into contact with the skin or
eyes, immediately rinse the affected areas with
water. Eyes should also be rinsed with an
appropriate irrigation solution and should not be
rubbed. SEEK MEDICAL ASSISTANCE IF
NECESSARY.
For additional information, refer to: Air Conditioning
(A/C) System Health and Safety Precautions
(100-00 General Information, Description and
Operation).
Adhesives and Sealers
See also Fire, Chemical Materials.
Highly flammable, flammable, combustible –
observe No Smoking policy.
Generally should be stored in No Smoking areas.
Cleanliness and tidiness in use should be
observed, for example disposable paper covering
benches; should be dispensed from applicators
where possible; containers, including secondary
containers, should be labeled appropriately.
