4. Cover splice with tape to insulated from
other wires.
5. Retwist as before and tape with electrical
tape and hold in place.

METRI-PACK
Some connectors use terminals called Metri-
Pack Series 150. They are also called “Pull-To-
Seat” terminals because of the method of instal-
lation. The wire is inserted through the seal and
connector, the terminal is crimped on the wire
and then pulled back into the connector to seat it
in place.
Metri-Pack Series 150 Terminal Removal
1. Slide the seal back on the wire.
2. Insert tool BT-8518, or J 35689, or equiva-
lent, as shown in insert “A” and “B” to release
the terminal locking tab (2).
3. Push the wire and terminal out through the
connector. If reusing the terminal, reshape
the locking tab (2).
WEATHER-PACK
A Weather-Pack connector can be identified by a
rubber seal, at the rear of the connector. The
connector is used in the engine compartment to
protect against moisture and dirt that may oxid-
ize and/or corrode the terminals. Given the low
voltage and current levels found in the electronic
system, this protection is necessary to ensure a
good connection.
