GD5 Component Check Actuate to Firm Position



^ Use a 12 volt power supply and connect negative lead to actuator Pin 3 and positive lead to Pin 4 for 1 to 2 seconds. This procedure should drive actuator to FIRM position. After this has been done remove power supply leads.

^ Using an analog ohmmeter (20,000 ohms per volt is recommended) measure resistance across actuator Pin 1 and Pin 2.

^ Ohmmeter reading is:

10,000 ohms or greater -- GO to GD8.

5 ohms or less -- Power supply circuits (pin 3 and 4) are reversed. REPLACE right rear actuator. REPEAT Service Bay Diagnostics. Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes
