3.  On Tools  SPX OTC  and Bosch   Vetronix  also offer various scan tools and pass through  programming tools     Proper Programming    Before programming a control module  there are several  important practices to follow to ensure that successful  programming occurs     Vehicle system voltage      he  vehicle s battery voltage should be  greater than 12 volts but less than  16 volts  The battery should be  charged before a programming  event  A battery charger should  NOT be connected to the battery  during programming unless It Is a  Midtronics PSC charger validated  for use during programming     Also turn off or disable any sys  i  tem or accessories that may put a  load on the battery  such as engine  cooling fans  the radio  Daytime  Running Lamps  etc     Maintain battery voltage  during programming        Ignition switch     The ignition switch must be in the On  position  Do not begin programming right away  It   s critical to  wait until all modules on the vehicle have    awakened    before  beginning  A good rule of thumb is to not plug in any tools  until the instrument panel lights and tones stop after the  initial key on     Do not change the position of the ignition switch during  programming unless instructed to do so  such as after a  successful programming  Do not turn off the ignition switch if  the programming procedure is interrupted or is unsuccessful   Attempt to reprogram the control module     Connections     Make sure all tool connections are secure   
4.  on an  engine  If you answered X ray vision   youre right  That would allow you to see  inside the hose to view the tiny cracks  on the inside walls of the hose where  damage begins  The second best  and  more realistic way  to check any coolant  hose is with the squeeze test     The squeeze test can be used to  inspect any coolant hose for the  negative effects of Electro Chemical  Degradation  ECD   which is the primary  culprit of coolant hose failure  ECD  creates fine cracks  or striations  in the  tube wall inside the hose  The fine  cracks extend from the inside to the    outside of the hose tube near one or  both ends of the hose and weaken the  structure of the tube     Regular Maintenance    Evidence of ECD depends on the  quality of the hose  time and vehicle  use  so there is no readily identifiable  maintenance interval to follow  The  squeeze test of coolant hoses should  be included as part of a vehicle   s regular  maintenance     To perform a squeeze test  squeeze  the hose near the clamps or connection  using the following procedures     e Make sure the engine is cool    e Use your finger and thumb  not  your whole hand  to check for  softness    e Squeeze near the connections  ECD  occurs within two inches of the  ends of the hose  not in the middle     e  f the ends feel soft or mushy but  the middle feels firm  the hose is  under attack from ECD    Electro Chemical Degradation    ECD is an electrochemical attack on  the tube compound  Different metals  f
