Ignition System: Service Precautions

Safety precautions

To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or damage to the fuel injection and ignition system, always observe the following:

If engine is to be cranked at starting RPM without starting:







- Remove fuses 29 and 32.

WARNING!
- Do not touch or disconnect ignition wires when engine is running or turning at starting RPM.
- Only disconnect and reconnect wires for injection and ignition system, including test leads, when ignition is turned off.


NOTE:
- By removing fuse 29, voltage supply to the ignition coils is interrupted.
- By removing fuse 32, voltage supply to the fuel injectors is interrupted.


If special testing equipment is required during road test, note the following:
- Test equipment must always be secured to the rear seat and operated from there by a second person.
- If test and measuring equipment is operated from the passenger seat, the person seated there could be injured in the event of an accident involving deployment of the passenger-side airbag.
