Sub-System Diagnostics
NOTE: A diode can fail in two modes, either shorted or open. Continuity will be
FUEL SHUT-OFF
YES: If continuity is
measured in one direction only in a serviceable diode. Use "diode checking mode" on

meter when checking continuity.
COIL SUPPRESSION
diode has failed in a

(V10) CHECK
diode has failed in an
open mode. Replace.
NO: If continuity is
measured in one check
and not the other, diode

Remove diode from connector.
Connect an ohmmeter to diode terminals.
