Diagnostic Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1994 Eagle Vision, 1994 Dodge Intrepid, 1994 Chrysler New Yorker, 1994 Chrysler LHS, and 1994 Chrysler Concorde. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: When using diagnostic tests, DO NOT skip any test steps or incorrect diagnosis may result.

Before proceeding with diagnosis, the following precautions must be followed:

Vehicle must have a fully charged battery and functional charging system (belt installed and all wiring connected).
DO NOT backprobe PCM connector. Probe PCM connector from terminal side.
DO NOT cause short circuits when performing electrical tests. This will set additional trouble codes, making diagnosis of original problem more difficult.
DO NOT use a test light in place of a voltmeter.
ALWAYS repair lowest trouble code number first when using MIL method. Repair first trouble code displayed when using DRB.
ALWAYS perform TEST CH-VER, VERIFICATION PROCEDURE after repairs are made.
ALWAYS disconnect DRB after completing testing, before starting any repairs and before charging battery.
