Approved Electrical Wiring Harness Repair Methods: Notes

CAUTION: Several different types and sizes of terminal may be found in a single electrical connector housing.

It is necessary to identify:

The conductor (wire) size of the affected wiring harness
The electrical connector range from which the damaged wiring harness is to be removed
The electrical terminal type

Use of the approved diagnostic tool will greatly assist in the quick identification of electrical connectors and faulty pin terminal(s).

Reference can also be made to the ERL and iEWD available through TOPIx, to identify wiring harness(s) and electrical connector(s).

Use the Electrical Wiring Harness Repair Relationship Table to identify the correct splice connector to suit the wiring harness conductor (wire) size, which can be related to a suitable pre-terminated lead by the color of the insulation. The table also identifies the correct length of insulation to be stripped from the wiring harness lead.
