QT9 Perform Continuous Test
- NOTE: Use the audible warning function on the Super STAR II Tester by turning the "SPKR" switch ON. You will be alerted of a continuous test fault without having to visually check the tester.
Hook up the analog VOM and jumper wire, or the Super STAR II, as in Test Step QT5 or QT7.
- Key ON.
- NOTE: With key ON, any coded fault re-created during continuous test will illuminate anti-lock brake warning indicator constantly. If key is turned OFF, then back ON without clearing codes from memory, anti-lock brake warning indicator will flash codes along with VOM or Super STAR II indicating a past or intermittent fault.
Tap, move and wiggle the suspected sensor and/or harness working with short sections from the sensor to dash panel and to anti-lock brake control module. Drive vehicle, if necessary.
- Does the anti-lock brake warning indicator illuminate continuously or audible warning heard from Super STAR II Tester?
YES -- Record VOM or Super Star II diagnostic trouble codes. Service only the codes re-created in this test step.
NO -- Normal operation. If intermittent fault cannot be re-created, turn key OFF. Disconnect suspect sensor and anti-lock brake control module from harness very carefully. Visually inspect all terminals for corrosion, bad crimps, improperly seated terminals, etc. Reconnect harness connectors and re-attempt this test.
