The amount of radio waves emitted from the cable increases as the standing-wave ratio increases, and this increases the possibility of the electronic
components being adversely affected.
Servicing the Electrical System
When servicing the electrical system, disconnect the negative cable from the terminal of the battery.
CAUTION: Before connecting or disconnecting the negative cable, be sure to turn off the ignition switch and the lighting switch. (If this is not
done, there is the possibility of the semiconductor parts being damaged.)
Secure the wiring harnesses by using clamps so that there is no slack. However, for any harness which passes to the engine or other vibrating parts of the
vehicle, allow some slack within a range that does not allow the engine vibrations to cause the harness to come into contact with any of the surrounding
parts, and then secure the harness by using a clamp.
In addition, if a mounting indication mark (yellow tape) is on a harness, secure the indication mark in the specified location.
If any section of a wiring harness interferes with the edge of a part, or a corner, wrap the section of the harness with tape or something similar in order to
protect it from damage.
When installing any of the vehicle parts, be careful not to pinch or damage any of the wiring harnesses.
