2. Inspect the connector (A) and socket (B) terminals for a good pin fit to be sure they are all making good contact.

- If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
- If the terminals look OK, go to step 3.





3. Reconnect the connector, and make these input tests at the connector.

- If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
- If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 4.





4. Disconnect the 32P connector again, and make this input test at the connector. If the input test proves OK, the HandsFreeLink control unit is faulty, replace it.
