Description
Before using the ABS/TCS procedures, you must have a basic knowledge
of the following items. Without this basic knowledge, it will be difficult
to use the diagnostic procedures.
• | Basic Electrical Circuits |
- | The basic theory of electricity |
- | Definitions of voltage, current (amps), and resistance (ohms) |
- | How to read a wiring diagram |
• | Use of Circuit Testing Tools |
- | The J 39200
DMM
and the use of the meter controls |
- | How to measure voltage, resistance, and current |
- | Use of jumper wires in order to bypass components in testing circuits |
If you need a review of basic electrical troubleshooting knowledge,
refer to
General Electrical Diagnosis
in Electrical Diagnosis
contains helpful information in the introduction. Basic use of the circuit
testing tools is also covered. Additionally, electrical/electronic courses
are offered through General Motors Training.
