- Using a voltmeter with a 0-15 volt range, contact bus bar connecting grid lines on passenger-side of glass with negative lead of voltmeter at terminal "A". Contact driver-side bus bar with positive lead at terminal "B". See Fig 1 .
- Turn ignition and control switches to ON position. Reading should be 10-14 volts. Lower voltage indicates a poor ground. Attach negative voltmeter lead to ground. Voltage reading should not vary.
- Contact negative lead to passenger-side bus bar at terminal "A". Probe each grid line at midpoint with positive lead. A 6-volt reading indicates line is good. A zero volt reading indicates a break between midpoint and driver-side bus bar line.
- A 10-14 volt reading indicates a break between midpoint and passenger-side bus bar line. Move positive lead toward break. Voltage will change when break is crossed.
