Must have minimum 11 VDC with the battery connected and SROS in the OFF position. b. Check voltage from PM-32 to SP-34 to ENCU-44. Must have minimum 11 VDC with SROS in the START/RUN position. If not, energize the run relay output using Component Test mode (refer to Section 5.2.4) and retest. c. Check for ground at ENCU-19 and PM-28. If ground not good, check connectors and wiring between terminals for damage, moisture or corrosion. d. Inspect engine speed sensor (ENSSN) and engine control unit (ECU) connector pins and terminals. Verify no physical damage to components, and no damage or corrosion in connectors. 5. Check Engine Air-intake System a. Check air cleaner indicator. Flag must not be visible. b.
