14. Thread the wires of the new male connector down into the socket and out through the opening in the base of
the socket into the packer wiring compartment. Gently pull the wires into the wiring compartment as you align
the masking tape mark on the connector with the felt tip mark on the packer facing. When you have pushed
the connector all the way into its socket it should not rotate if the indexing pin is in the index hole. Using the
small ruler, measure the distance from the packer facing down to the connector, it should be a little more than
1-3/8'' (35mm) (see Figure 36). Hold the wires tight to keep the connector in position and insert the retaining
washer (with upturned teeth facing out) forcing it down until it is firmly against the connector. Recheck the 1-
3/8'' (35mm) measurement after installing the retaining washer to confirm that the connector is at the proper
depth.
