GLI L4-2.0L Turbo (BPY) (2008)
Wiring Harness: Service and Repair
Wires With Diameter Up to 0.35 Sq.mm, Repairing
Wires With Diameter Up To 0.35 Sq.mm, Repairing
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
-
Crimping pliers, complete VAS 1978/1 A
-
Exchangeable head, 0.35 sq.mm - 2.2.5 sq.mm VAS 1978/1-1
When repairing wires with a cross-section up to 0.35 sq.mm, new contacts must always be crimped on using Crimping Pliers of JPT Contacts VAS
1978/9A, or Crimping Pliers (Base Tool) VAS 1978/1-2 with Head Adapter for JPT Contacts VAS 1978/9-1 installed. Due to the low current strengths
of these wires in the micro- to milli- range, contacts crimped on incorrectly lead to continuity resistances and cause malfunctions or failure of the
respective system. The most frequent applications of these contacts are:
-
Oxygen sensor
-
Speed (RPM) sensor
-
Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
By using Crimping Pliers of JPT Contacts VAS 1978/9A or Crimping Pliers (Base Tool) VAS 1978/1-2 with Head Adapter For JPT Contacts VAS
1978/9-1 installed, correct connection between crimp contact, wire and single wire seal is guaranteed. The tool is to be used only for the purpose
described.
NOTE: Contacts in a normal and a gold-plated version are crimped on to repair wires. The same version of the contact that was installed at the factory
must always be used for repairs.
Crimping a new contact with single wire seal
-
Insert exchangeable head for JPT contact VAS 1978/9-1 into crimp pliers (basic tool) VAS 1978/1-2.
-
Place the single wire seal on to the repair wire.
NOTE: When doing this, the smaller diameter of single wire seal must be facing in the direction of the contact to be crimped on.
