The alternation – the general information and check of usefulness of functioning

To give of the provision of power or a sign of the management of some consumers of the electric power in the car (like the component ones of the system of the injection of the fuel, a horn, an author, the supporter (supporters) of system of cooling, thick fog lights and so on) the alternations are in use. In fact the alternation represents the electric key that supplies the short circuit of VV of an outline in NV to a sign. In case of an alternation exit out of the operation there is a refusal of the functioning of the corresponding consumer. Most of part of the alternation are put in the block of meeting located in a compartment of reason, others are spread in the car. The description of the check of the usefulness of the functioning of the alternation happens down. The failed alternations are subject to the substitution.

To check

ORDER OF REALIZATION

1. If it will not be possible to discover a way of be lighting of the alternation in the corresponding electric outline according to the schemes of electric connections (to see Schemes of electric connections - the general information), is necessary to be remembered that the approximation of the check of any alternation in beginning is identic in all the cases (to see besides that).
2. In most of the alternation the outline of the management is always joined to two of captures of contact. When the offer in these captures NV of the current of tension begins the circular in a bend of the management of the alternation, therefore, there is a short circuit of great contacts of an outline of work of the consumer of the electric power. Other captures are taken of working (VV) of an outline.
3. For aims of the simplification of the identification of captures of the alternation the explicative marking with the image of the scheme of the connection of keys is applied normally in his case.

4. Join the point of passage of equipped wire of a lock of security between one of captures of the management of the alternation and the positive capture of the battery. Through the second land of point of passage of wire the second capture of the management, – the alternation will publish the click. A little from the respect of demand of alternation to the polarity of the connection, – if the click did not happen, it tries to modify the polarity of the connection of captures of the management. In the connected wires the passage points they check the existence of the condutividade between the outline taken of VV, when joined an ohmmeter according to the key scheme in case of alternation (companion seeing an illustration).

5. In the negative result of the check they substitute the alternation.
