WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6, 2006 Chevrolet Uplander, and 2006 Buick Terraza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Never insert the same terminal back into the connector once it is removed. Crimp on a new terminal.
- Prior to installation the terminal must be aligned so the (1) coding lugs align with the (2) coding grooves on the connector.
- Once the terminal is aligned, slide the terminal into the cavity until the retainer has engaged in the cavity of the connector.
- Slide the TPA in the connector body and seat it using a small flat bladed tool. The TPA is seated when it is flush with the contact housing.
- Secure the wires to the connector body using a tie wrap and replace the dress cover and grommet.
