General Information
Please use caution when performing any
maintenance on the electrical system. This
includes changing bulbs, switches, etc.,
handling circuit breakers, batteries, etc.
Pay attention to replacement parts listed.
NEVER attempt to replace a part with a part
number that has not been recommended.
Replacement part numbers and descriptions
are listed in your parts catalog.
Electrical Connectors
Electrical connectors must not be forcibly
mated or unmated. All are designed to be
mated easily. If you have to use tools, you
may be doing something incorrectly. Prying
or forcing connectors may cause permanent
damage to the locking mechanism,
contacts, or both.
When you work on connectors, make sure
you are working on the correct terminal.
Remember that male and female halves are
mirror images of each other. Look for the
terminal number on the connector body.
The connection of improper electrical
circuits can cause unusual electrical
symptoms.
When an electrical connector is repaired, it
is important that the proper terminals are
used. In some of these connectors,
different terminals are used to carry different
currents. If contacts of different materials
are mated, corrosion may develop that
could affect performance.
When you remove terminals from a
connector, it is very important to use the
correct extraction tool and gently remove
the terminal. The connector body can be
damaged if terminals are just “jerked” out.
The damage caused will prevent the new
terminal from staying in the connector, and
a replacement of the connector body will be
necessary.
When you install a new terminal on a wire,
make sure the insulation crimp and wire
crimp are both made properly. Each part of
the terminal crimp is designed for a specific
purpose. Failure to crimp the wire contact
area properly can result in poor or no
electrical contact. Failure to crimp the
insulation support properly can result in
problems getting the terminal into the
connector body, causing premature failure.
Keep all sparks and flame
batteries, as the gas given off by
electrolytes is explosive. To avoid sparks,
connect the ground cable last and
disconnect it first. To avoid shocks and
burns, disconnect battery ground cable
before servicing any part of electrical
system or when removing batteries.
