Procedures






Wire Splicing

When splicing a wire, it is important that the correct gage be used as shown in the wiring diagrams.






- Remove one half (1/2) inch of insulation from each wire that needs to be spliced.

- Place a piece of adhesive lined heat shrink tubing on one side of the wire. Make sure the tubing will be long enough to cover and seal the entire repair area.

- Place the strands of wire overlapping each other inside of the splice clip (1).






- Using crimping tool (1), crimp the splice clip and wires together.







DO NOT USE ACID CORE SOLDER.

- Using an soldering gun (3), solder the connection (2) together using rosin core type solder (1) only.






- Center the heat shrink tubing (2) over the joint and heat using a heat gun. Heat the joint until the tubing is tightly sealed and sealant comes out of both ends (1) of the tubing.
