THEORY AND DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION

READING ELECTRICAL
SCHEMATICS

The schematic is made up of individual circuits laid out
in a sequence of related functions. It is formatted with
all power wires (A) across the top and all ground wires
(B) across the bottom. Current flow is generally from
top to bottom through each circuit and component. All
components are shown in the OFF position. The
diagram does not list connector (C) information unless
needed to avoid confusion. If the connector is shown,
the number next to it is the terminal pin location (D) in
the connector.

Each component is shown by a symbol (E), its name
(F), and an identification code (G). The identification
code contains a device identifying letter (H) and
number (I).

The identifying letter is always the same for a specific
component, but the identifying numbers are numbered
consecutively from upper left to lower right. The
terminal designation (J) is placed directly outside the
symbol next to the connecting wire path. Switch
positions (K) are also placed directly outside the
symbol. The solid line (L) shows the position the switch
is currently in and dash lines (M) represent other switch
positions.

Each circuit is identified at the bottom of the drawing by
a section number (N) and section name (O).

The circuit number (P) and wire color (Q) of the wires
are shown directly next to the wire path.

The same component name and identification code are
used consistently on all diagrams in this section.
Components can be easily cross-referenced.
