System Diagnosis

IMPORTANT
^ The following tests are designed for engines and batteries at normal operating temperatures and assume that there are no engine symptoms that would cause a no start condition. The battery must be in a charged state before doing diagnosis To use tests under other conditon could recult in misdiagnosis.
^ Perform the On-Board Diagnostic System Check described in "Engine Controls" to be certain no diagnostic trouble codes are stored in memory which, if ignored, may lead to a misdiagnosis.
