Wire Harness Diodes

1. Attach the connector harness to the halogen bulb. The retaining tab should lock onto the halogen bulb (Figure
13-11, Page 13-17).
2. From the front of vehicle, reach under the cowl and insert the bulb assembly into the headlight lens.
3. Turn the bulb assembly counterclockwise one-quarter turn.
4. Connect battery and spark plug wire(s). See Connecting the Battery – Gasoline/Diesel Vehicles, Section
1, Page 1-4.
WIRE HARNESS DIODES
See General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-2.
The wire harness is equipped with several in-line diodes.

TESTING THE WIRE HARNESS DIODES

See Test Procedure 9 – Wire Harness Diodes on page 11-19.

WIRE HARNESS DIODE REMOVAL

1. Disconnect battery and spark plug wire(s). See Disconnecting the Battery – Gasoline/Diesel Vehicles on
page 1-3.
2. Locate the diode to be replaced by removing the wire conduit and tracing the wire.
3. Note the polarity of the diode, as indicated by the silver stripe on one end of the diode, and mark the wire
on the side of the silver stripe.
4. Cut the wires attached to each side of the diode and discard the diode.

WIRE HARNESS DIODE INSTALLATION

1. Slide a piece of heatshrink tubing over one of the wire ends where the diode will be attached.
2. Install the new diode using in-line wire splicing connectors. Make sure to observe polarity and place the end of
the diode with the silver stripe on the wire that was marked when the diode was removed.
3. Slide the heatshrink tubing over the diode and ensure that it will, after being activated, adequately cover the
uninsulated diode leads.
4. Activate the heatshrink by carefully applying heat to the tubing.
5. Bundle the wires into the plastic wire conduit and replace any wire ties that were removed when the wires
were traced.
6. Restore the wire harness routing to the original routing and secure the harness with wire ties as required.
7. Connect battery and spark plug wire(s). See Connecting the Battery – Gasoline/Diesel Vehicles, Section
1, Page 1-4.
