Intermittent And Poor Connection - Suzuki sq-416-420-625 Service Manual

1. Check contact tension by inserting and removing
just once.
2. Check each terminal for bend and proper alignment.

INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTION

Most intermittent are caused by faulty electrical connections or wir-
ing, although a sticking relay or solenoid can occasionally be at
fault. When checking it for proper connection, perform careful
check of suspect circuits for:
D Poor mating of connector halves, or terminals not fully seated in
the connector body (backed out).
D Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. The terminals must be clean
and free of any foreign material which could impede proper termi-
nal contact.
However, cleaning the terminal with a sand paper or the like is
prohibited.
D Damaged connector body, exposing the terminals to moisture
and dirt, as well as not maintaining proper terminal orientation
with the component or mating connector.
D Improperly formed or damaged terminals.
Check each connector terminal in problem circuits carefully to en-
sure good contact tension by using the corresponding mating ter-
minal.
If contact tension is not enough, reform it to increase contact ten-
sion or replace.
