FLOW OF DIAGNOSIS

1. Complete the VEHICLE REPAIR HISTORY and DRIVEABILITY WORKSHEETS to provide better communication between the customer and the mechanic and assist in verifying the customers actual complaint. Refer to INFO TYPE/TECHNICAL MANAGEMENT SUPPORT for the worksheets.

2. Check any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply to the vehicle being serviced. These bulletins may contain important information regarding warranty, recalls, revised service procedures, etc.

3. A careful and thorough visual inspection may reveal the problem without further testing.

4. The On-Board Diagnostics will verify that the ECU sensors and circuits are functioning properly, or display any trouble codes that may be stored in the computer memory.
