Verify ground connection integrity between engine, body, battery and generator. Check for damaged wiring
harnesses and/or switches. Check fo r a broken or partially broken wire inside insulation, which could cause
system malfunction but prove good in a continuity/vol tage check with system disconnected. Ensure any
aftermarket electronic e quipment is properly installed. If fault is found, repair as necessary. If no fault is found,
check for conditions that might cause an intermittent situation.
