Control Modules





Control Modules







Connecting and disconnecting control modules
- Always switch off the ignition before connecting and disconnecting control modules, connectors and the breakout box.
- The ignition must be switched off when taking readings with an ohmmeter.

Temperature







The control modules must not be heated to above 80°C. Remove control modules when stoving for example.

Arc welding
- Always disconnect the battery negative lead to prevent a short-circuit.
- Position the welding ground as close to the welding site as possible, otherwise different ground potentials may be generated in different components.
- When welding close to an electronic module, the unit must be removed to avoid heat damage.

Replacement
Do not replace a control module without checking its wiring and components. Otherwise the new component may be damaged in the same way as the old one.
