Electrical system absorption test
Measuring no-load current absorption
The current absorbed by the vehicle system may be measured with a digital multimeter or with an
amperometric clamp meter.
Use only amperometric clamp meters with mA scales.
The unit of measurement used for testing must be Amperes (A).
Ensure that the doors and the luggage compartment lid are correctly closed.
Open the engine compartment lid.
Remove the engine compartment cosmetic shields (
E3.13
).
For vehicles WITHOUT Stop&Start system ONLY, remove the right hand lateral cosmetic shield.

for the following procedures.
Connect the wire

to the tester socket marked
Ground.
Connect the wire
(B)
(usually red) to the tester
socket marked with the unit of measurement
A (Amperes).
For vehicles without Stop&Start system
