Deutsch DTM Series Connector Service Procedures
Contact Insertion
1. Grasp crimped contact
approximately 1.0" (25.4 mm) behind
the contact barrel.
2. Hold connector with rear grommet
facing you.
3. Push contact straight into connector
grommet until a click is felt. A slight tug
will confirm that it is properly locked in
place.
Once all contacts are in place, insert
orange wedge: receptacles - with half
holes aligning with contacts. Plugs -
with contacts aligning behind full holes.
The orange wedge will snap into place.
NOTE: The receptacle is shown - use
the same procedure for plug.
Contact Removal
1. Remove orange wedge using needle
nose pliers to pull wedge straight out.
2. To remove the contacts, gently pull
WJDe backwards, while at the same
time releasing the locking finger by
moving it away from the contact with a
screwdriver.
3. Hold the rear seal in place, as
removing the contact will displace the
seal.
