Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Oldsmobile Aurora. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step number in the diagnostic procedures.

  1. 2

    This step verifies that a failure condition is present.
  2. 4

    Introducing smoke in 15 second intervals may allow smaller leak areas to be more noticeable. When the system is less pressurized, the smoke will sometimes escape in a more condensed manner.
  3. 6

    This step verifies that repairs are complete and that no other condition is present.
