Special tools: 9998534
Other special equipment: J-39200

NOTE

Check all relevant connectors. Check for loose
connections, contact resistance and oxidation. For a
more detailed description of fault-tracing wiring
and connectors, see separate service information
under Group 371.

Note: If one of the values below is incorrect this may also
have caused the component to fail, check the component
if any of the values are incorrect.
