PREVENTING RECURRENCE OF TROUBLE
The troubleshooting table is used to establish the direct cause of damage or breakdown of a part or piece of equipment. It is not able to establish the root cause of the damage or failure, however.

Also, this table only describes the action to be taken with the particular part or piece of equipment. It does not mention what action should be taken to prevent a recurrence of the root cause.

In order to remove the root cause of a fault so as to prevent a recurrence, carefully investigate the real cause while referring to the following items.
Regarding the method of checking and adjusting each part or piece of equipment, refer to “Testing and adjusting”
in the Shop Manual.
