General Specifications
Output Devices
The electrical tests for output devices vary greatly, depending upon
type and manufacturer. Consult the vehicle service manual for the
schematic, specifications and test procedures.
Primary output devices (actuators) are a form of an electromagnet
that is either ON or OFF. The
ONIOFF signal, in general, will be in one
of three configurations:
ON
or
OFF
only (switch) Check
for continuity with the switch in
the ON and OFF position.
Pulse Width (fuel injector)
Measure the ON time (pulse).
Duty Cycle (Mixture Control
Solenoid)
Measure the percent of high
(+)
or low
(-)
time in a duty
cycle. In most cases the low
(-1
time is the ON time.
