Pinpoint Test Description

Pinpoint tests

NOTE: When performing voltage or resistance tests, always use a digital multimeter (DMM) accurate to 3 decimal places, and with an up-to-date calibration certificate. When testing resistance, always take the resistance of the DMM leads into account.

NOTE: Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic routines involving pinpoint tests.

NOTE: If DTC's are recorded and a fault is not present when performing the pinpoint tests, an intermittent concern may be the cause. Always check for loose connections and corroded terminals.
