Does either terminal have abnormally high voltage?

9

Does either terminal have abnormally low voltage?

Yes: Check wiring for a Short to Power
No: Continue to Step 9
Yes: Check wiring for a Short to Ground
No: Return to Step 6 and re‐test.
Yes: Continue to Step 11
No:

10 Is the voltage on Terminal C (+) higher than Terminal D (‐)?

11

• Disconnect the batteries.

3rd terminating resistor
No: Continue to Step 15
Yes: Inspect data link wiring for High(+) and Low(‐) shorted together

15 Is the resistance < 40 ohms

16

• Measure the resistance from Terminal C to Gnd

19

• Unplug the 1702 connector.
• Measure resistance on connector 1702 (Female Terminals)
◦ Note: This wiring harness runs to the pass through on
the right side the cab and continues through the dash
over to the 1701 connector on the left side of the cab

No: Return to Step 11 (Resistance out of range has not been
detected)
Yes: Continue to Step 17
No: Inspect data link wiring for a short to ground.
Yes: Continue to Step 18
No: Inspect data link wiring for a short to ground.
Yes: Continue to Step 19
No: Continue to Step 20
Yes: Return to Step 12 (Open not detected)

No Continue to Step 21
