How to Troubleshoot Circuits at the Connectors Except for SRS Unit Connectors, Waterproof SRS Connectors, and SRS Inflator Connectors

Special Tools Required

Back Probe Adapter, 17 mm 07TAZ-001020A

When using electrical test equipment, insert the back probe adapter, 17 mm of the tester into the wire side of the connector (except SRS unit connector, waterproof SRS connector, and SRS inflator connector).

NOTE:

Make sure the 12 volt battery is fully charged when doing an electrical test. If the 12 volt battery is not fully charged, the results of the tests may not be accurate.
Do not insert the probe of the tester into the terminal side of the connector, and do not tamper with the connector.
To prevent damage to the connector, do not insert test equipment probes, paper clips, or other substitutes. Damaged terminals cause a poor connection and an incorrect measurement.
Do not puncture the insulation on a wire. Punctures can cause poor or intermittent electrical connections.
Do not insert the probe forcibly.
Use specified service connectors in troubleshooting. Using improper tools could cause a diagnostic error due to poor metal-to-metal contact.
