## Inspection Guidelines for AMC Electric Propulsion Batteries

When inspecting vehicles with AMC electric propulsion batteries, it is crucial to follow specific guidelines to ensure safety and identify potential issues. The inspection should include all electric and hybrid vehicles, excluding Class 3 vehicles as per the provided context.

The primary focus of this inspection is the battery itself. Technicians must be cautious due to the high voltage components and cabling within these systems, which can cause fatal electric shocks if damaged. Therefore, it is essential to check for any signs of damage or deterioration that could compromise the battery's integrity. Additionally, during the inspection, technicians should also verify the functionality of other critical systems such as the speed limiter, electronic stability control (ESC), and steering mechanisms, adhering to the guidelines outlined for private passenger and light commercial vehicles.
