Before Pinpoint Tests

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Lincoln LS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Prior to entering pinpoint tests, check the powertrain control module (PCM) wiring harness for correct connections, bent or broken pins, corrosion, loose wires, correct routing, correct seals and their condition. Check the PCM, sensors and actuators for damage. See INTRODUCTION - GASOLINE article .

NOTE: If a concern still exists after electrical diagnosis, refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM in this article.

If DTCs appear while carrying out the on-board diagnostics, refer to the DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) CHARTS in this article for the appropriate repair procedure. Prior to entering pinpoint tests, refer to any TSBs messages for transmission concerns.
