CAUTION: Do not use any heat shrink tubing other than the recommended bonded heat shrink tubing mentioned in the repair procedure.
This document is intended to provide information on how to perform quick and efficient minor repairs to connectors or cables using approved methods and a harness repair kit. Repairs are only permitted for cables and connectors that are mechanically damaged, not electrically damaged. Additionally, this procedure may be used in cases where the extent of the damage can be clearly identified and repaired.
High quality of repairs is determined by the thoroughness and accuracy of the performer.
Warning:
At the time of the first release of the Wiring Harness Repair Manual, there were no approved repair procedures for the following circuits:
- Any MOST network harnesses.
- Airbag system (SRS) deployment circuits.
- Connecting wire assemblies used exclusively for safety-critical circuits, such as the ABS circuit and thermocouples. An example is the ABS wheel speed sensors with molded connectors.
- Shielded cables, wires and wire harnesses.
If the cause of the malfunction is any wiring harnesses with defective contacts in electrical connectors or wires from the above circuits, new components must be installed.
