Abs Circuit Check

Test also is used to check for intermittent problems. With DVOM connected to selected circuit, perform wiring harness wiggle test to check for poor wiring harness or connector connections. Perform wiggle test while observing DVOM and wiggling related wiring harness or connector. See ABS CIRCUIT QUICK CHECK CHART  and 25-PIN CONNECTOR TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION  table. See Fig 1 .
