DESCRIPTION

When using the EC-AT Tester, it is critical that the pin connector (with ground) that is located on the bottom left-hand corner of the EC-AT Tester body is never connected at the same time an adapter harness is being used.

Symptom codes should be retrieved from the Control Unit first using the 6-pin connector; after disconnecting the 6-pin connector, the adapter harness can be used for further diagnosis.

"Control Unit" refers to EC-AT Control Unit, except for 1990 626/MX-6 non-Turbo. For these models, the EC-AT Control Unit is incorporated into the Engine Control Unit.

REPAIR PROCEDURE

Please affix the attached label on the left side of the EC-AT Tester body, to the left of the adapter harness connector. On versions with the adapter, affix the label on the top panel of the adapter.
