4. Verify the connections.
5. Check the gap voltage.
Connect the Extension Cable
Use the following steps to connect the sensor and extension cable.
The connection area of the connector must not be exposed to water or oil. If
TIP
water or oil enters the connector, the cable capacity increases, and causes a
loss in sensitivity.
Make sure the color band on the sensor cable matches the color band on the
TIP
probe end of the extension cable.
