Connector SymbolsINFOID:0000000006282193
Most of connector symbols in wiring diagrams are shown from the terminal side.
Connector symbols shown from the terminal side are enclosed by a single line and followed by the direction mark.
Connector symbols shown from the harness side are enclosed by
a double line and followed by the direction mark.
Certain systems and components, especially those related to
OBD, may use a new style slide-locking type harness connector.
For description and how to disconnect, refer to PG section,
“Description”, “HARNESS CONNECTOR”.
Male and female terminals Connector guides for male terminals are shown in black and
female terminals in white in wiring diagrams.

Sample/Wiring Diagram -Example-
INFOID:0000000006282194
Each section includes wiring diagrams.
Description
JCAWA0150GB
Number Item Description 1 Power supply This means the power supply of fusible link or fuse.
2 Fuse “/” means the fuse.
3 Current rating of fus-
ible link/fuse This means the current rating of the fusible link or fuse.
4 Number of fusible link/
fuse
This means the number of fusible link or fuse location.
5 Fusible link “X” means the fusible link.
6 Connector number Alphabetic characters show to which harness the connector is placed.
Numeric characters show the identification number of connectors.
7Switch This shows that continuity exists between terminals 1 and 2 when the switch is in the A
position. Continuity exists between terminals 1 and 3 when the switch is in the B position.
8 Circuit (Wiring) This means the wiring.

SWITCH POSITIONS
Switches are shown in wiring diagrams as if the vehicle is in the “normal” condition.
A vehicle is in the “normal” condition when:
ignition switch is “OFF”,
doors, hood and trunk lid/back door are closed,
pedals are not depressed, and
parking brake is released.
MULTIPLE SWITCH
The continuity of multiple switch is described in two ways as shown below.
The switch chart is used in schematic diagrams.
9 Shielded line The line enclosed by broken line circle shows shield wire.
10 Connectors This means that a transmission line bypasses two connectors or more.
11 Option abbreviation This means the vehicle specifications which layouts the circuit between “ ”.
12 Relay This shows an internal representation of the relay.
13 Optional splice The open circle shows that the splice is optional depending on vehicle application.
14 Splice The shaded circle “ ” means the splice.
15 System branch This shows that the circuit is branched to other systems.
16 Page crossing This circuit continues to an adjacent page.
17 Component name This shows the name of a component.
18 Terminal number This means the terminal number of a connector.
19 Ground (GND) This shows the ground connection.
20 Explation of option
description This shows a explanation of the option abbreviation used on the same page.
