Generally,
absence
of
voltage
or
continuity
means
there
is
a
wiring
or
connector
problem
.
Test
results
with
incorrect
values
do
notnecessarily
mean
that
a
component
is
faulty
:
Check
for
loose,
broken
or
corroded
connections
and
wiring
before
re-
placing
components
.
If
the
results
are
still
incorrect,
test
the
component
itself
.
For

CAUTION-
Always
waitat
least
40
seconds
after
tuniing
off
the
ignition
before
removing
the

from

If

When
making
checks
at

itself,
a
breakout
box
should
be
used
to
allow
tests
to
be
made
with
the

to
a
charcoal

which
is
then
purgedby

Startingwith
1996
models,
OBD

require
that
the
