    HINT:

    The standard normal voltage between each pair of the ECM terminals is shown in the table below. The appropriate conditions for checking each pair of the terminals are also indicated.

    The check results should be compared with the standard normal voltage for that pair of terminals, listed in the "Specified Condition" column.

    The illustration above can be used as a reference to identify the ECM terminal locations.
