7. LOSS OF ELECTRICAL
POWER for some but not all
vehicle operations.
1. No voltage at these circuits,
caused by a broken wire or switch,
or a blown fuse.
1. Repair wiring, switch and fuse as
required.
8. FUSE continuously blows. 1. Check the system for shorts, loose
grounds, defective or corroded
electrical components.
