Section 2 (Engine Controls - System/Component Tests - 1.8L): Introduction: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

NOTE: Testing individual components does not isolate shorts or opens. Unless stated otherwise in test procedure, perform all voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance. Use ohmmeter to isolate wiring harness shorts or opens.

Before testing separate components or systems, perform procedures in BASIC TESTING - 1.8L article. Since many computer-controlled and monitored components will set a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) if they malfunction, it is also recommended that self-diagnostics be performed. See TESTS W/CODES - 1.8L article.
