This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose only the following:
- Solenoid tank valve/lockoff solenoid
- Alternative fuel lines and filters
- Compuvalve

NOTE:
- This condition may be mistaken as an auto switch to gasoline mode condition.
- Be sure any manual shut off valves (1/4 turn valves) and manual tank valves are open (if equipped).
- Verify the LPG fuel level using the fuel gauge mounted to the LPG tank(s) (if equipped) before continuing diagnostics.
- If the vehicle is equipped with a dual LPG tank option, be sure to check ALT operation in both LPG positions of the ALT/GAS switch.
