Charts are a simple way of expressing the relationship between basic logic and a physical system of components. They help discover the cause of a condition in the least time. Diagnostic charts combine many areas of diagnosis into one visual display:
- Probability of certain things occurring in a system
- Speed of checking certain components or functions before others
- Simplicity of carrying out certain tests before others
- Elimination of checking huge portions of a system by carrying out simple tests
- Certainty of narrowing down the search to a small portion before carrying out in-depth testing
The fastest way to find a condition is to work with the tools that are available. This means working with proven diagnostic charts and the correct special equipment for the system.
