October 30: LEMON manuals on a temporary server, it is slow and having issues, download the manuals you need! Later in November we will switch back to the fast server.

Intermittent Simulation

To reproduce conditions which cause intermittent fault, use the following methods:

Lightly vibrate component.
Heat component.
Wiggle or bend wiring harness.
Spray component with water.
Remove/apply vacuum source.

Monitor circuit/component voltage or resistance while simulating intermittent fault conditions. If vehicle is running, monitor for self-diagnostic codes. Use test results to identify a faulty component or circuit.
