CAUTION:
Diagnosis by substitution from a donor vehicle is NOT
acceptable. Substitution of control modules does not guarantee confirmation of a fault and may also cause additional faults in the vehicle being checked and/or the donor vehicle.
NOTE:
Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic routines involving pinpoint tests.
- Verify the customer concern.
- Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical damage.

- If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to the next step.
CAUTION:
If the engine is run without the auxiliary drive belts connected to eliminate driven components, diagnostic trouble codes, (DTCs) may be set which must be cleared before the vehicle is returned to the owner. The engine should not be run for more than 2-3 minutes with the belts disconnected. Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the vehicle.
- If the cause is not visually evident, verify the symptom and refer to the Symptom Chart. Alternatively check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and refer to the appropriate Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index information.
