Water Pump Engine Coolant Heater, Replacing: Adjustment
Extending the wiring for the water pump
Cut off the cable harness for the water pump as close to the connector as possible.
Cut off part of the protective tube so that the 2 cables are exposed.
Strip the ends of the cables enough for the bonded shrink-fit terminals from the kit.
Modify the length of the protective tube so that the stripped cable ends are only just protruding.
Thread the thin protective tube onto the cable harness extension.
Use the bonded shrink-fit terminals from the kit. Splice the cable harness extension to the stripped cables.
Reinforce the exposed areas. Use insulation tape.
Thread the thicker protective tube from the kit over the join.
Adjust the length so that it overlaps the thinner protective tubes by approximately 10 mm on each side.
Wind insulation tape around the join.
