Intermittent Simulation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Dodge Ram Wagon and 1995 Dodge Ram Van. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
To reproduce conditions creating an intermittent fault, use following methods:
- Lightly vibrate component.
- Heat component.
- Wiggle or bend wiring harness.
- Spray component with water.
- Remove/apply vacuum source.
Monitor circuit/component voltage or resistance while simulating intermittent. If engine is running, monitor for self-diagnostic codes. Use test results to identify a faulty component or circuit.
