The traditional way of detecting faults in special systems of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles is carried out by measuring electric parameters at checkout points of a system by means of a measuring device mounted on a control panel capable of comparing them against permissible values. The new technique is distinct in that the contacts of the control panel are connected by wires fitted with needles with the connector wires of system units previously dismounted from the vehicle that correspond to the checkout points of the system. Thus, taking measurements of any electrical parameters is carried out directly during the operation of a special system in any of its modes.
