Diagnostic Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1996 Eagle Vision, 1996 Dodge Intrepid, 1996 Chrysler New Yorker, 1996 Chrysler LHS, and 1996 Chrysler Concorde. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Before proceeding with diagnosis, certain precautions must be followed. See PRETEST INSPECTION under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM.

Diagnostic test procedures are designed to detect system faults as quickly as possible. Body Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are accessed through Data Link Connector (DLC). Chrysler's Diagnostic Readout Box (DRB) scan tool or generic scan tool, is used to access information from DLC.

A 1996 diagnostic program cartridge, scan tool, body diagnostics cable, hand-held oil pressure gauge, jumper wires, and digital volt-ohmmeter will be needed for testing. Go to TEST 1A in appropriate BODY CONTROL COMPUTER section in this article.
