3 Series E46 316i (M43TU) SAL
Caution!
Pay attention to interface.
The repair cable is always a standard length.
The heavy-current connector of the repair cable has a larger
diameter than the battery positive lead.
In some Series (e.g. E46 touring), the heavy-current
connector of the repair cable can lead to installation problems.
This is the case when the interface is in the area of the close-
fitting trim panels.
Find matching interface (e.g. approx. 10 cm behind rear seat
backrest in E46 touring).
Lay repair cable parallel to battery positive lead.
Mark interface of battery positive lead at end of repair cable.
Release cable ties (1).
Disconnect plug connection (2).
Caution!
Do not use bolt cutters or similar tools to cut through the
cable.
A cable end that has been squashed flat will no longer fit into
the clamping sleeve.
Saw through battery positive cable at marked point with an iron
saw.
