5. The wiring harness between engine and chassis
should be long enough (2). Tension of the wire (1) may
causes chafing or damage due to various vibrations.
Splicing Wire
1. If the harness is taped, remove the tape. To avoid wire
insulation damage, use a sewing “seam ripper”
(available from sewing supply stores) to cut open the
harness.
If the harness has a black plastic conduit, simply pull
out the desired wire.
2. Begin by cutting as little wire off the harness as
possible. You may need the extra length of wire later
if you decide to cut more wire off to change the location
of a splice. You may have to adjust splice locations to
make certain that each splice is at least 1–1/2”
(40 mm) away from other splices, harness branches,
or connectors.
3 . W h e n r e p l a c i n g a w i r e , u s e a w i r e o f t h e s a m e s i z e a s
the original wire.
Check the stripped wire for nicks or cut stands. If the
wire is damaged, repeat the procedure on a new
section of wire. The two stripped wire ends should be
equal in length.
4. Select the proper clip to secure the splice.
To determine the proper clip size for the wire being
spliced, follow the directions included with your clips.
Select the correct anvil on the crimper. (On most
crimpers your choice is limited to either a small or
large anvil.)
Overlap the two stripped wire ends and hold them
between your thumb and forefinger as shown in the
figure.
The center the spline clip (1) under the stripped wires
and hold it in place.
Open the crimping tool to its full width and rest one
handle on a firm flat surface.
Center the back of the splice clip on the proper anvil
and close the crimping tool to the point where the back
of the splice clip touches the wings of the clip.
Make sure that the clip and wires are still in the correct
position. Then, apply steady pressure until the
crimping tool closes as shown in the figure.

Before crimping the ends of the clip (1), be sure that:
The wires extend beyond the clip in each direction.
No strands of wire are cut loose, and
No insulation is caught under the clip.
Crimp the splice again, once on each end.
Does not let the crimping tool (2) extend beyond the edge
of the clip or you may damage or nick the wires as shown
in the figure.
5. Apply 60/40 resin core solder to the opening in the
back of the clip as shown in the figure.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the solder
equipment you are using.6. Center and roll the splicing tape.
The tape should cover the entire splice.
Roll on enough tape (1) to duplicate the thickness of
the insulation on the existing wires.
Does not flag the tape (2). Flagged tape may not
provide enough insulation, and the flagged ends will
tangle with the other wires in the harness as shown in
the figure.
If the wire does not belong in a conduit or other
harness covering, tape the wire again. use a winding
motion to cover the first piece of tape as shown in the
figure.
