Reason Volvo C70 I

Reason

Incorrect crimping as shown above can be caused by

1. Cable terminal is the wrong size for the cable area
2. The wrong crimp tool or the wrong forming section in the crimp tool was used.

Scheme 194

The cable has not been pushed far enough in.

The entire stripped core must be located within the core crimp.

Scheme 195

The cable insulation is too far forward and has caught under the core crimp.

Scheme 196

The insulation is not fully located in the insulation wings.

Scheme 197

The stripped core is too far forward past the core crimp.

Scheme 198

The strip section is the right length but one of the copper strands is outside the terminal, indicating the terminal was incorrectly located in the crimp tool forming jaws.

All of the strands must be pressed together within the core wings.

Incorrect crimping as shown above can be caused by

1. Stripping the cable too short or too long.
2. Incorrect location in the cable terminal.
3. The cable terminal was incorrectly located in the crimp tool forming section.
