Check to see that dc control circuit breaker on Control Panel is depressed (paragraph 2-4). Depress button to set circuit breaker. If breaker will not stay depressed, notify higher level of maintenance. Step 2. Inspect for loose, corroded, or broken battery cables or starter ground cable (paragraph 3-11). [a] If loose, corroded, or broken battery cables and starter ground cable are found, notify higher level maintenance. [b] Use slave receptacle when extra cranking power is required. Step 3.
