Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
-
VAG 1331
NOTE:
-
Do not use rust remover, contact spray or grease because the lack of friction will cause the torque to be exceeded when installing and this will
lead to the threaded connection breaking.
-
The gray sanding pads are for slight contamination and suitable for "soft surfaces". The red sanding pads are for heavy contamination and
suitable for "hard surfaces".
-
Disconnect battery.
-
Loosen the cap nut and remove the wiring eyelet from the threaded connection.
-
Check the wiring eyelet for corrosion, contamination, etc.
-
Select the corresponding adapter and the corresponding sanding pad.
NOTE: The sanding block can be used instead.
CAUTION: Make sure the tin layer is not worn down too much and the copper is not visible. A galvanic element can form from this,
destroying the metal and causing incorrect repairs.
NOTE: Due to the different thicknesses of the tin layer, the cleaning process must be performed in several steps and a visual inspection of the
wiring eyelet between steps is necessary.
