How to use this diagram

  • Click any component to reveal its role, a typical value for training, how to test it and likely faults.
  • Wires and connectors can be selected too — voltage drop testing is the key skill.
  • Safety warnings are shown where a procedure carries risk.
All values shown are training examples. Real thresholds depend on the manufacturer, engine, temperature and system — always confirm with the vehicle service documentation.
