Harness Repairs
HARNESS REPAIRS
Introduction
CAUTION: The harness must be replaced when the damage is attributed to excessive current flow or where there is evidence of over-heating.
Under no circumstances should a repair be attempted to:
^
Any Media Orientated System Transport (MOST) network harnesses.
^
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) firing circuits.
^
Link lead assemblies, which are unique to safety critical areas such as ABS and thermocouple circuits; a typical example is the ABS wheel speed
sensor with moulded connector.
^
Any wires with a cross sectional area (CSA) greater than 6.0 mm.
^
Screened cables and leads.
If damage occurs to any of the above areas, an overlay harness must be used. These are available through the normal parts ordering process.
