Inspection for Electrical System
DESCRIPTION
• If the malfunction can be traced directly to the electrical system,
first check for items such as burned-out fuses and fusible links,
broken wires or loose connectors, pulled-out terminals, and
improper connections.
• If a fuse or a fusible link is blown out, determine the possible
cause and restore it. Always replace it with a new fuse or fusible
link of the specified capacity.
• When removing a connector, do not apply excessive force to the
main body by grasping and twisting.
• Do not pull a connector off by tugging on the harness.
• For a lock-type connector, disengage its lock first, then
disconnect the connector by holding the main body of the
connector.
• Before connecting a connector, check terminals for bends or
breakage. Connect it securely.
• For a lock-type connector, press it until its lock is securely
engaged.
• When installing parts, prevent harnesses from being snagged
or overextended.
