Removal
A Weather-Pack connector can be identified by a rubber seal
at the rear of the connector. This engine room connector
protects against moisture and dirt, which could form oxidation
and deposits on the terminals. This protection is important,
because of the low voltage and the low amperage found in the
electronic systems.
1. Open the secondary lock hinge on the connector.
2. Use tool 5-8840-0388-0 or the equivalent to remove the
pin and the sleeve terminals. Push on 5-8840-0388-0 to
release.
Notice: Do not use an ordinary pick or the terminal may be
bent or deformed. Unlike standard blade terminals, these
terminals cannot be straightened after they have been
improperly bent.
3. Cut the wire immediately behind the cable seal.
