Electrical equipment failures are often explained by simple reasons, such as corrosion of connector contacts, failure of a fuse, burnt-out fuse link or damaged relay
Visually check the condition of all fuses, wiring and connectors on the circuit before proceeding with a more detailed check of the serviceability of its components.

When using diagnostic tools for troubleshooting, carefully plan (in accordance with the supplied electrical diagrams) at which points in the circuit and in what sequence the device should be connected for the most effective fault phenomena.
The main diagnostic instruments include an electrical circuit tester or voltmeter (you can also use a 12-volt test lamp with a set of connecting wires), an open circuit indicator (probe), which includes the lamp's own power source and a set of connecting wires.
In addition, you should always have in your car a set of wires for starting the engine from an external power source (the battery of another car), equipped with alligator clips.
As already mentioned, before you start checking the circuit using diagnostic equipment, determine the location of its connection using the diagrams.
