HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION
CONNECTOR CONTINUITY AND VOLTAGE TESTWhen checking continuity and/or voltage at the waterproof
connectors, follow the steps below to avoid poor connector
contact and/or reduced waterproof performance of connectors.
(1) When checking is performed with the circuit in the stateof continuity, be sure to use the special tool (harness
connector).
Never insert a test bar from the harness side, because
to do so will reduce the waterproof performance and result
in corrosion.
(2) When the connector
JS disconnected for checking the fe-
male pin, the harness for checking the contact pressureof connector pins should be used.
Never force the insertion of a test bar, because to do
so will cause poor contact.(3) When the male pin is to be checked, apply the test bar
against the pin directly.
Care must be taken not to short-circuit the connector pins.
TERMINAL ENGAGEMENT CHECK
When the terminal stopper of connector is out of order, engage-
ment of male and female terminals becomes improper even
when the connector itself is engaged perfectly and the terminal
sometimes slips out to the rear side of connector. Ascertain,
therefore, that each terminal does not come off the connector
by pulling each harness wire.
CONNECTOR TERMINAL ENGAGEMENT AND
DISENGAGEMENTConnectors which are loose shall be rectified by removing
the female terminal from connector housing and raising its
lance to establish a more secure engagement. Removal of
connector terminal used for MFI and 4 A/l control circuit shallbe done in the following manner.
COMPUTER CONNECTOR(1) Insert screwdriver
[1.4 mm (.06 in.) width] as shown in
