High Temperature Conditions

TOOLS REQUIRED
J25070 Heat Gun

If the complaint tends to be heat related, you can simulate the condition using the J 25070.

Using the heat gun, you can heat up the suspected area or component. Manipulate the harnesses under high temperature conditions while monitoring the scan tool or DMM to locate the fault condition.

The high temperature condition may be achieved simply by test driving the vehicle at normal operating temperature. If a heat gun is unavailable, consider this option to enhance your diagnosis. This option does not allow for the same control, however.
