Ignition System: Service Precautions



Safety Precautions
To prevent injuries to persons and/or damage to the fuel injection and ignition system, the following must be noted:

- Do not touch or disconnect ignition wiring when the engine is running or being turned at starter speed.
- The ignition must be switched off before connecting or disconnecting injection or ignition system wiring or tester cables.
- If the engine is to be turned at starter speed, without starting:
- Disconnect 3-pin harness connector from power output stage for ignition coil.
- Remove fuse 32

NOTE: Removing fuse 32 interrupts the voltage supply to the injectors.

Observe following if test and measuring instruments are required during a test drive:
- Test and measuring instruments must be secured to rear seat and operated by a 2nd person from this location.

If test and measuring instruments are operated from front passenger's seat and the vehicle is involved in an accident, there is a possibility that the person sitting in this seat may receive serious injuries when the airbag is triggered.
