Insert tapered end of secondary locking wedge into
socket housing and press down until it snaps in place.
The wedge fits into the center groove within the socket
housing and holds the terminal latches tightly closed.
NOTES
While rectangular wedges do not require a special orien-
tation, the conical secondary locking wedge of the 3-pin
connector must be installed with the arrow pointing
toward the external latch. See
If the secondary locking wedge does not slide into the
installed position easily, verify that all terminals are fully
installed in the socket housing. The lock indicates when
terminals are not properly installed by not entering its
fully installed position.
REMOVING/INSTALLING PINS
1. Remove the secondary locking wedge. Use the hooked
end of a stiff piece of mechanics wire a needle nose pli-
ers, or a suitable pick tool (Part No. HD-41475-100). See
Figure B-10.
2. Gently depress terminal latches inside pin housing and
back out pins through holes in wire seal.
