take care not to misconnect connectors. To ensure that the original conditions can be exactly
restored, take photographs or sketches or apply markings as appropriate before replacement.
Note that connectors are identified by shape and color. The connectors with the same shape
and color are identified by labels (color and number) on the harness side. Also, the major
connectors on the PCB are described with the actuator name (number) to be connected, so
refer to the shape, color, label and indication on the PCB and take care not to misconnect
connectors.
