Electrical System: Connectors: Inspection

• When a tester is used to inspect for continuity or measuring voltage, insert the tester probe from the wiring harness side.
• Inspect the terminals of waterproof connectors from the connector side since they cannot be accessed from the wiring harness side.
  CAUTION:

  • To prevent damage to the terminal, wrap a thin wire around the tester probe before inserting into terminal.
