PROCEDURES
This section gives the procedures in order to
quickly repair electrical harness splices.
1. Make sure to perform the usual tests described
in
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
sections before inves-
tigating the harness splices.
2. If an electrical issue can not be found with the
usual tests, locate the main harness splice that
is involved in the faulty circuit and repair it as
per the
SPLICES REPAIR PROCEDURE
.
3. To repair a splice, we recommend the use of a
tin solder meeting the followings requirements
or an equivalent.
