the battery cables are corroded, remove the battery cables and clean the battery cables. Clean the battery
posts and then replace the cables. Tighten any loose connections.

2. Inspect the batteries.

a. Charge the batteries.

b. Load test the batteries. Refer to Testing and Adjusting.

Starting Circuit

1. Inspect the starting motor and the flywheel ring gear for damage. Test the operation of the starting
motor and associated circuit components. Refer to Testing and Adjusting.

Electrical Power Supply

Check the electrical power supply. If necessary, refer to the circuit test Troubleshooting, "Electrical Power
Supply - Test".

Internal Engine Problem

1. Remove the fuel injectors. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly.

2. Attempt to rotate the crankshaft through 360 degrees in both direction. If the crankshaft rotates
