Engine Controls - System/Component Tests: Introduction

1996 Isuzu Trooper S, AutomaticSECTION Introduction

Before testing separate components or systems, perform procedures in BASIC TESTING article. Since many computer-controlled and monitored components set a trouble code if they malfunction, also perform procedures in appropriate (if more than one) TESTS W/CODES article.

NOTE: Testing individual components does not isolate shorts or open circuits. Perform all voltage tests with a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance, unless stated otherwise in test procedure. Use ohmmeter and refer to WIRING DIAGRAMS  to isolate shorted or open wiring harness.
