Wire Repair
NOTE :
When splicing a wire, it is important that the correct gage be used.
1. Remove one-half (1/2) inch of insulation from each wire that needs to be spliced.
2. Place a piece of adhesive lined heat shrink tubing on one side of the wire. Make sure the tubing will be long
enough to cover and seal the entire repair area.
3. Place the strands of wire overlapping each other inside of the splice clip.
4. Using a crimping tool, crimp the splice clip and wires together.
NOTE :
Do not use acid core solder when making wiring repairs.
5. Solder the connection together using a soldering iron and rosin core type solder only.
6. Center the heat shrink tubing over the joint and heat using a heat gun. Heat the joint until the tubing is tightly
sealed and sealant comes out of both ends of the tubing.
Fuse Replacement
• When replacing a fuse, be sure to replace it with
one of the same capacity. If a fuse fails again, the
circuit probably has a short and the wiring should
be checked.
• Be sure the negative battery terminal is discon-
nected before replacing a main fuse.
• When replacing a pullout fuse, use the fuse puller.
