Section 48 (Engine Controls - System & Component Testing): Introduction
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1992 Cadillac Allante and 1991 Cadillac Allante. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
To properly diagnose and repair this vehicle, check for diagnostic trouble codes. See SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article. If no DTCs are present and a driveability condition exists, proceed to TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES article for diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, ENGINE STALLS, etc.).
NOTE:
Testing individual components does not isolate shorts or opens. Perform all voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance, unless stated otherwise in test procedure. Use ohmmeter to isolate wiring harness shorts or opens.
