Intermittent Simulation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Attempt to reproduce conditions causing intermittent problem(s):
- Apply light vibration to components.
- Apply small amount of heat to component.
- Wiggle or bend wiring harness.
- Remove/apply vacuum supply source.
Monitor circuit/component voltage or resistance while attempting to simulate intermittent. Monitor for DTCs. Use test results to identify problem component or circuit.
