Flat Wire Repairs
The flat wire within the flex wiring harness is not serviceable. If an open or short exists within the flex wiring harness the complete harness must be
replaced.

Special Tools
*
EL-38125-10 - Splice Sleeve Crimping Tool
*
J 38125-5 - Ultra Torch Special Tool
*
Dura Seal splice sleeves
*
A wire stripping tool
For equivalent regional tools, refer to Special Tools (See: Power and Ground Distribution/Tools and Equipment).
The Dura Seal splice sleeves have the following 2 critical features:
*
A special heat shrink sleeve environmentally seals the splice. The heat shrink sleeve contains a sealing adhesive inside.
*
A cross hatched (knurled) core crimp provides necessary contact integrity for the sensitive, low energy circuits.
The GM Local Area Network (GMLAN) System requires special wiring repair procedures due to the sensitive nature of the circuitry. Follow the specific
procedures and instructions when working on GMLAN connectors and terminals.
GMLAN Repairs
Note: When making a repair to any GMLAN network, the original wire length after the repair must be the same length as before the repair. If the
network is a twisted pair, the twist must be maintained after the repair is completed.
GMLAN has 2 types of networks, low speed and high speed. Low speed GMLAN has a single wire and works at slow speeds. High speed GMLAN has 2
wires in a twisted pair and works at higher speeds. For more information on GMLAN, refer to Data Link Communications Description and Operation (
See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Information Bus/Description and Operation).
GMLAN Connector Terminal Repair
Note: A terminated lead can be used to replace damaged connector terminals for both high speed and low speed GMLAN systems. When making a
connector terminal repair on a GMLAN high speed system with twisted pair wires, do not untwist the wires more than necessary to make the repair.
If the individual terminals are damaged on any GMLAN connection, use the appropriate connector repair procedure in order to repair the terminal. Refer
to Connector Repairs (See: Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/General Electrical Diagnostic Procedures/Connector
Repairs/Connector Repairs) for the appropriate connector repair procedure.
GMLAN Wire Repair
Note: Refer to Wiring Repairs in the service information connector end views or the vehicle schematics in order to determine the correct wire size for
the circuit you are repairing. You must obtain this information in order to ensure circuit integrity.
If any wire except the pigtail is damaged, repair the wire by splicing in a new section of wire of the same gauge size (0.5 mm, 0.8 mm, 1.0 mm etc.). Use
the Dura Seal splice sleeves and EL-38125-10 - tool. For wiring repair, refer to Splicing Copper Wire Using Splice Sleeves (See: Testing and
Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/General Electrical Diagnostic Procedures/Wiring Repairs/Splicing Copper Wire Using Splice
Sleeves).
Heated Oxygen Sensor Wiring Repairs
Heated Oxygen Sensor Wiring Repairs
Caution: Do not solder repairs under any circumstances as this could result in the air reference being obstructed.
If the heated oxygen sensor pigtail wiring, connector, or terminal is damaged the entire oxygen sensor assembly must be replaced. Do not attempt to
repair the wiring, connector, or terminals. In order for the sensor to function properly it must have a clean air reference. This clean air reference is
obtained by way of the oxygen sensor signal and heater wires. Any attempt to repair the wires, connectors or terminals could result in the obstruction of
the air reference and degrade oxygen sensor performance.
