NUMBERS, TOOL PART NUMBERS, AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
B. Terminal Removal
1. Remove secondary lock if one is present.
2. Depress lock tab on terminal (accessible in slot of connector) and push terminal out front of
connector (Figure E–4, View A).
3. If replacing terminal, cut terminal between core and insulation crimp (to minimize wire loss).
C. Terminal Crimping
1. Carefully strip insulation 6.5 mm ± 0.5 (0.26 ± 0.02 inch). Unless insulation crimp is overtight,
Automatic Wire Stripper J 35615 will remove insulation and crimp from old terminal without
damaging wire.
2. Place core crimp portion of terminal on bed of anvil indicated and squeeze crimper enough to hold
terminal from dropping (Figure E–7, View B).
3. Position wire core in terminal and squeeze crimper tool to complete the core crimp. Be sure to
orient the terminal so that it is properly aligned with the terminal cavity in the connector. (When
crimping two wires in terminal P/N 12015243, strip and twist cores together before inserting into
the terminal.)
4. Position insulation crimp of terminal on anvil indicated so that the entire insulation crimp area and
a portion of the terminal between the core and insulation crimp areas are supported by the anvil.
Complete the insulation crimp.
5. Slip the wire through the slot in the connector and pull to fully seat the terminal(s).
6. Reinstall the secondary lock, if one is required.
