If the problem still is not found:

7.

Check possible indicator malfunction by using a load cell simulator to
input a known good signal into the indicator.

8.

Disconnect each load cell’s signal leads at the junction box and check
individual load cell outputs with a multimeter. Then check input/output
impedances for comparison with load cell manufacturer’s specifications.

If after all these checks the problem still cannot be isolated, reconnect all but one
load cell. Replace the load cell with a load cell simulator. Alternate so that each load
cell is individually disconnected and replaced with a simulator. If there is a problem
with a particular load cell, the symptom should disappear when that load cell is
disconnected and replaced with the simulator.
