SPLICING
With the low current and voltage wires in the Saturn vehicle, it is best to use approved Packard Electric Crimp and Seal Splice Sleeves (or
equivalent)
1. Remove insulation from both ends, recommended strip length is 9.5 mm (3/8 in.). Caution must be used to prevent cutting the wire strands.
Locate new splice a minimum of 40 mm (1.5 in.) from an outlet or other splice.
2. Determine proper sleeve for gage of wire. Position stripped ends in sleeve until wires hit stop.
3. Hand crimp using the approved crimping tool. Gently tug on wires to make sure they are secure before applying heat to them.
CAUTION: Do not use match or open flame to apply heat to seal.
