  1. E2 CHECK THE IGNITION START CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Ignition Switch C250.
    • Measure the resistance between SJB fuse 28 (5A), circuit CDC35 (BU/WH), input side and ignition switch C250-7, circuit CDC35 (BU/WH), harness side.

    • Is the resistance greater than 10,000 ohms? 
  1. E4 CHECK FOR CORRECT SJBOPERATION 
    • Disconnect: All SJBconnectors.
    • Check all SJBconnectors for:
      • corrosion.
      • pushed-out pins.
      • spread terminals.
    • Connect: All SJBconnectors making sure that all connectors are seated correctly.
    • Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
    • Is the concern still present?
