  Note
t  Observe general information on repairs to the vehicle electrical system → Chapter.
t  Observe notes on repairing wiring harnesses and connectors → Chapter including marking repair locations.
   
FlexRay wiring consists of a sheathed pair of wires -1 and 2- with a cross-section of 0.35 mm2.
t  Both wires must be of exactly the same length when repairing.
t  When twisting the wires -1 and 2-, the twist length specification -A- = 30 mm must be met.
t  When making repairs, there must be no untwisted section of wire which is longer than -B- = 50 mm, e.g. in the vicinity of crimp connectors -arrow-.

t  Maximum stripped length of wire -C- = 100 mm.
t  Protect repair location against environmental effects with suitable measures. This requires a crimp connector with shrink hose, internal bonding material over untwisted repair joint and water-tight insulating tape around stripped wire.
t  The repair location must be marked with appropriate tape e.g. yellow insulating tape.
t  Follow the same procedure as you do when repairing one wire if you are repairing both wires.
t  The two repair locations -arrows- should be located one twist length -A- = 30 mm away from each other.
t  Crimping cable ends with connectors should be performed in the same way.
1 - Repair location in stripped area
2 - Repair location with cable ends with connectors
C - Maximum stripped length = 100 mm
