WIRING HARNESS
Wiring: Precautions for the repair
88A
I - SAFETY
1 - Potentially dangerous components
Do not leave any unused +12V connectors exposed to
the air without any protection (see Connector: Sea-
ling and locking) (Technical Note 6015A, 88A, Wi-
ring).
Check that there is no contact between the wiring and
the fuel and brake pipes.
Avoid mounting the wiring in areas with a temperature
above 100˚C.
2 - Advice to be followed before any operation
Before carrying out any work on the wiring, disconnect
the battery.
3 - Instructions to be followed during the operation
To prevent the wiring from being damaged, check that
the surrounding area is not mechanically harmful (e.g.:
door windows, sharp corners, burrs, studs, etc.).
The wiring should be at least 30 mm away from any
moving components (belt, pulley, steering column,
etc.).
Depending on the surrounding area, check that the
unused connectors respect the necessary sealing
constraints (see Connector: Sealing and locking)
(Technical Note 6015A, 88A, Wiring).
All of the connections (connectors) used in the engine
compartment are sealed; do not remove the seal from
around the connectors.II - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Do not connect an earth to a stud with insulating pro-
tection (paint,etc.).
Do not use more than two earth terminals on the same
point.
Do not use power earths on the same point as electro-
nic earths.
To prevent water flowing into the connectors, make a
low point just on the wiring routing (just before the con-
nector).
For connections between fixed and mobile compo-
nents, secure the wiring on the fixed part.
Overlapping of the battery feed wires (positive and ne-
gative) causes disruption; they must be secured sepa-
rately.
Wiring mountings:
- use plastic clips, ensuring that the colour coding is
respected,
-do not use steel clips that are not protected with rub-
ber,
- keep the clips integrated into the wiring during a re-
placement operation,
- do not leave steering wheel wires without protection.
Check that:
- the shunts are correctly secured,
- the connectors are correctly housed and locked.
Wiring routing:
- when it is visible it must be aesthetically pleasing, and
resemble the routing marked during removal,
- prohibit wiring routing in grooves and overlaps (risk of
wear through friction),
- prohibit mounting several wires on the same clip,
- do not lock the connectors or wiring in areas that are
sensitive to drilling (number plate etc.). WARNING
To prevent damaging the connectors, consult the
disconnection procedure (see Connector: Discon-
nection and reconnection) (Technical Note
6015A, 88A, Wiring).
WARNING
To prevent any risk of noise, premature wear, short
circuits, etc. after the refitting operation, mark the
wiring routing and how to connect the connectors.
WARNING
To prevent any damage during the removal opera-
tion, check that the wiring is free from its mountings
(retaining clip, plastic clip, adhesive tape, connec-
tor, etc.).

AIR BAG AND PRETENSIONERS
Airbags and pretensioners: Recycling - Destruction
88C
aAlways use the tool (Ele. 1287) and three kits of
adapters (Ele. 1287-02),and (Ele. 1812).
aUse a wiring connector kit 82 00 518 971.
aAttach the wiring connectors 82 00 518 971 to the
adapters (Ele. 1287-02) to obtain an adapter for
each colour (green, orange, blue, etc.) (see Wiring:
Repair) (Technical Note 6015A, 88A, Wiring).
aUse a battery to power the destruction tool.
I - AIRBAGS
a
aPrepare the adapter corresponding to the airbag to
be destroyed. Special tooling required
Ele. 1287Tool for destroying airbags
and pretensioners.
Ele. 1287-02Kit of 2 adapters for the air-
bag and pretensioner des-
tr uction tool.
Ele. 1812Kit of 2 adapters for the air-
bag and pretensioner des-
tr uction tool.
IMPORTANT
To avoid all risk of damage to the systems, apply
the safety and cleanliness instructions and opera-
tion recommendations before carrying out any
repair (see 88C, Air bag and Pretensioners, Air-
bag and pretensioners: Precautions for the
repair, page 88C-1) .
IMPORTANT
To eliminate the risk of any accident, do not reuse
pyrotechnic components.
It is essential to destroy pretensioners or airbags
before scrapping a vehicle or a par t only.
WARNING
-Each part is intended for a specific vehicle type
and should not be fitted on another vehicle under
any circumstances. The parts are not interchan-
geable.
-Do not trigger pretensioners which are to be retur-
ned under warranty because of a faulty stalk. This
makes analysis of the part by the supplier impossi-
ble. Return the defective part to Techline in the
packaging of the new part.
WARNING
The destr uction procedure cannot be carried out if
local regulations require a special procedure which
has been confirmed and published by the Fault fin-
ding, Repair and Procedures Depar tment.
Note:
If triggering is not possible (faulty ignition module)
return the par t to Techline.
96832
Note:
The airbags must be destroyed outside the
workshop, in an area with sufficient space.
The airbags to be destroyed must be removed.
Note:
If the airbag has two levels of activation (i.e. it is
fitted with two connectors), destroy both connec-
tors.

AIR BAG AND PRETENSIONERS

aConnect:
-the adapter to the destruction tool (Ele. 1287),
-the adapter to the airbag.
aPut the airbag on two wooden blocks.
aThe destruction procedure is carried out in a stack of
old tyres.
aMake sure that the airbag deployment will not be
hindered.
aUnwind the full length of the wiring for the tool, in or-
der to distance it as far away as possible from the
pyrotechnic component to be destroyed.aConnect the two feed wires of the destruction tool
(Ele. 1287) to a battery.
aDestroy the airbag by pressing the two push buttons
on the tool simultaneously.
II - PYROTECHNIC PRETENSIONERS AND INERTIA
REELS
1 - Destruction of part fitted on the vehicle to be
scrapped:
aMove the vehicle outside the workshop.
aMark the adapter corresponding to the pyrotechnic
component to be destroyed.
aConnect:
-the destruction tool (Ele. 1287) to the adapter,
-the adapter to the pyrotechnic component.
aUnwind the tool wiring fully, so that you are far enou-
gh away from the vehicle (approximately ten metres)
when the device is triggered.
aConnect the two feed wires of the destruction tool
(Ele. 1287) to a battery.
aDestroy the pyrotechnic component by pressing the
two push buttons on the tool simultaneously.
2 - Destruction of part removed from the vehicle:
aProceed in the same way as for an airbag (in a stack
of old tyres).
