Probing from Harness Side
Standard type (not waterproof type) connector should be probed from harness side with "T" pin.
Scheme 20
- If the connector has a rear cover such as a ECM connector, remove the rear cover before probing the terminal.
- Do not probe waterproof connector from harness side. Damage to the seal between wire and connector may result.
Scheme 21
Scheme 22
- There is a small notch above each female terminal. Probe each terminal with the "T" pin through the notch. Do not insert any object other than the same type male terminal into female terminal.
- Some connectors do not have a notch above each terminal. To probe each terminal, remove the connector retainer to make contact space for probing.
Scheme 23
- Carefully probe the contact surface of each terminal using a "T" pin. CAUTION: Dot not bend terminal.
Connector & Harness
Determine which connectors and wiring harness would affect the electrical system you are inspecting. Gently shake each connector and harness while monitoring the system for the incident you are trying to duplicate. This test may indicate a loose or poor electrical connection.
