To prevent damage to the on-board computer when tak-
ing vehicle electrical measurements, always use a digi-
tal multimeter with at least 10 megOhms of impedance.

Fuel and battery vapors are highly flammable. To pre-
vent an explosion, keep all sparks, heated items and
open flames away from the battery and fuel / fuel
vapors. DO NOT SMOKE NEAR THE VEHICLE DUR-
ING TESTING.

Don't wear loose clothing or jewelry when working on an
engine. Loose clothing can become caught in the fan,
pulleys, belts, etc. Jewelry is highly conductive, and can
cause a severe burn if it makes contact between a
power source and ground.
