Intermittent Simulation

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 40 other vehicles, including the 1992 Saturn SL2, 1992 Saturn SL1, 1992 Saturn SL, 1992 Saturn SC, and 1992 Pontiac Sunbird. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

To reproduce the conditions causing intermittent fault, use the following methods:

Lightly vibrate component.
Heat component.
Wiggle or bend wiring harness.
Spray component with water.
Remove or apply vacuum source.

Monitor circuit/component voltage or resistance while simulating intermittent. If vehicle is running, monitor for self-diagnostic codes. Use test results to identify a faulty component or circuit.
