Using Fused Jumper Wires
TOOLS REQUIRED
J 36169-A Fused Jumper Wire
IMPORTANT: A fused jumper may not protect solid state components from being damaged.
The J 36169-A includes small clamp connectors that provide adaptation to most connectors without damage. This fused jumper wire is supplied with a
20-A fuse which may not be suitable for some circuits. Do not use a fuse with a higher rating than the fuse that protects the circuit being tested.
Connector Position Assurance Locks
The connector position assurance (CPA) is a small plastic insert that fits through the locking tabs of all the SIR system electrical connectors. The CPA
ensures that the connector halves cannot vibrate apart. You must have the CPA in place in order to ensure good contact between the SIR mating
terminals.
Terminal Position Assurance Locks
The terminal position assurance (TPA) insert resembles the plastic combs used in the control module connectors. The TPA keeps the terminal securely
seated in the connector body. Do not remove the TPA from the connector body unless you remove a terminal for replacement.
