Quick Method

TEST # 1 ALDL (Quick Method)

CHECK FOR 12 VOLTS TO TERMINAL A

Note
ALDL quick methods, when given, are a way to perform many of the tests at the Assembly Line Diagnostic Link (ALDL).

This will allow you to do most of the electrical checks from the driver's seat and save much valuable diagnostic time.




^ Connect one end of a test light to terminal A at the ALDL.

^ Connect the other end to terminal F at the ALDL.

^ Turn on the ignition and the tester should light.

Note
some transmissions, like the 125C must shift to 3rd before the tester will light.

^ If the tester lights, you have 12 volts to terminal A at the transmission. Go to Test # 6.

^ if the tester does not light, then check for 12 volts by the regular method.
