Disciplines
Switch off the ignition prior to making any connection or
disconnection in the system. An electrical surge can be
caused by disconnecting 'live' connections which can
damage electronic components.
Ensure hands and work surfaces are clean and free of
grease, swarf, etc. as grease collects dirt which can cause
tracking or high-resistance contacts.
Prior to commencing any test, and periodically during any
test, touch a good earth to discharge body static. This is
because some electronic components are vulnerable to
static electricity.
General Information
Electrical Wires
All the electrical wires are either single-colour or two-
colour and, with only a few exceptions, must be
connected to wires of the same colour. On any of the two-
colour wires there is a greater amount of one colour and a
lesser amount of a second colour. A two-colour wire is
identified by first the primary colour and then the
secondary colour. For example, a yellow wire with thin
red stripes is referred to as a 'yellow/red' wire; it would be
a 'red/yellow' wire if the colours were reversed to make
red the main colour.
