Operation CHARM: Car repair manuals for everyone.

General Information

Each diagnostic trouble code is diagnosed by following a specific testing procedure. The diagnostic test procedures contain step-by-step instructions for determining the cause of trouble codes as well as no trouble code problems. It is not necessary to perform all of the tests in this book to diagnose an individual code.

Always begin by reading the diagnostic trouble codes using the DRB. This procedure begins in the DTC TEST - Checking the System for Diagnostic Trouble Codes. This will direct you to the specific test(s) that must be performed.
