Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview



Preliminary Inspection
1. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage, blown fuses, etc.
2. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to the next step.
3. If the concern is not visually evident, verify the symptom and proceed with diagnosis, using the Jaguar approved diagnostic system, where available.
4. Where K-Line or Vacutec equipment is available, it should be used as an aid to diagnosis. The equipment must be capable of testing to the 0.020 thou standard.
