Tribute LX 2WD V6-3.0L DOHC (2001)
3.
Strip approximately 1/2 in. (12.7 mm) of insulation from each of the cut wires in the harness.
CAUTION:
The harness contains a 16-gauge red wire and a 20-gauge red wire with a pink tracer. DO NOT cross these wires when splicing in the service
pigtail. As an assembly aid, the 16-gauge red wire on the service pigtail is identified by a small tag.
Also, it is possible that some discoloration of the insulation may occur. Sets of wires may appear to have the same color insulation when in fact
all wires in the ABS module harness are different except for the two (2) black ground circuit wires. Be sure to carefully examine each wire to
avoid crossing circuits when splicing wires.
NOTE:
^
The harness contains two (2) black wires of the same size. Both are grounds (circuit 57). Crossing these wires has no adverse effect on
vehicle operation.
^
The service pigtail kit contains the connector with wires matching color and size of the original vehicle harness, three (3) different sizes of
butt splice connectors for the different wire sizes and a piece of heat shrink tubing to cover each splice.
4.
Working with one wire at a time, match the wires from the service pigtail to the correct wires from the vehicle harness. Insert the stripped end of
each wire into the butt splice connector and crimp using the crimp tool provided.
NOTE:
Be sure to place the butt splice connector against the connector depth stop" on the crimp tool for proper crimping.
