Test cable / adapter cable 124589366300 what's it all about?
G'day folks,
I'm about to perform a compression test on my M102 and I dutifully looked in the FSM to see how they say it should be done. The book says to disconnect the ignition module and then plug in an "adapter cable" - this is a special tool part number => 124589366300 Now I reckon I'll just connect a crocodile clipped bit of wire from the solenoid on the starter and touch that on the +tve battery terminal to get the starter motor to work and by-pass all of this switching on the ignition nonsense but it left me wondering => "What the **** is this adapter cable doing"? Does anyone know? Has anyone seen one? It seems a rather expensive bit of wire to buy... ...now I know curiosity killed the cat but sometimes us old dogs need to stick our necks out and ask dumb questions.
