Short Circuit Check (Wire Harness to Ground)
- Disconnect negative (-) cable at battery.
- Disconnect connectors at both ends of the circuit to be checked.NOTE: If the circuit to be checked is connected to other parts (1), disconnect all connections to these parts.
This is essential to having correct check results. - Measure resistance between the terminal at one end of the circuit ("A-1" terminal in the figure) and ground. If continuity is indicated, it means that the circuit is shorted to ground between terminals "A-1" and "C-1".
- Disconnect the connector included in circuit (connector-B) and measure resistance between "A-1" and ground. If continuity is indicated, the circuit is shorted to ground between terminals "A-1" and "B-1".
