How To Determine A Short Circuit
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- With test light:
Connect a test light (rated at approx. 3 watts) in place of the blown fuse and allow current to flow through the circuit. Disconnect one connector at a time. At that time, always start with the connector located farthest from the power supply. If the test light goes out when a connector is disconnected, the harness between that connector and the next connector (farther from the power supply) is shorted.
- With ohmmeter:
Disconnect all affected connectors, and check continuity between each connector and ground. When the ohmmeter indicates continuity between a particular connector and a ground, that connector is shorted.
