GI Troubleshooting
FindIng short circuits
Shorts occur between the power (positive) and ground (negative) sides of a circuit.
Therefore, finding a short circuit requires determining how the circuit is routed.

l The CPU transistor burns out
when the ignition switch is
turned ON.
l The CPU thinks the switch is
ON because the same
conditions exist as when the
switch is ON.
@The CPU senses the sensor
to be 0 Q because the same
conditions exist as when the
resistance value is 0 Q.

Sensor/switch
1. Attach the test lamp or
voltmeter to the CPU
connector.
2. Connect to the switch/
sensor connector.
3. Check the voltmeter reading
