14.3.1. Detection of a rupture of a chain

PERFORMANCE ORDER
1. For check of integrity of a chain connect the device for verification of schemes or negative щуп the voltmeter to the negative plug of the accumulator or the earthed element.
2. Connect the second щуп to connection in a checked chain, it is desirable for the next to the accumulator or a safety lock. Thus this site of a chain should be energized from the accumulator if only the connection socket to the accumulator does not carry out a current or did not fuse a safety lock (thus do not forget that some chains of electric equipment join only at key turn in the ignition lock in a certain situation).
3. Include the chain, then connect щуп a tester to the connection closest to the switch of a chain on the party of the checked element.
4. If tension is present (about what the control bulb testifies or voltmeter indications), it means that the chain site between the corresponding connection and the switch has no gaps.

Continue chain check by the same image and after site detection on which there is no tension. It means that the rupture of a chain occurred between this point and a point of the previous check on which there was a tension. The majority of problems of the opened chain are caused by the broken or weakened socket.
