WARNING: Harnesses passing through
sheet metal must be through protective
grommets that also ensure a watertight
seal. A windscreen type sealer should be
used. Adhesive or tape is not acceptable.
NOTE:
Holes must permit the appropriate
connector to pass through.
NOTE:
The maximum size of additional wire
bundle diameter is 6mm
There are three locations in the dash panel which
have been identified for additional holes to route
wires through. See figure E145360 (view from
engine bay) for locations. The number of suitable
locations will depend on the vehicle specification.
The grommets in locations 1 and 2, shown in figure
E145360, are molded directly to wire bundles in
polyurethane foam material. It is not possible to
feed extra wires through with the wire bundle. The
grommets have an 'indent' molded into the surface
face, engine bay side, which show the positions
where an additional hole can be made using the
following procedure:
•
Check that the immediate surrounding area is
free from obstructions and/or components to
prevent damage to critical systems.
•
Use a suitable tool, for example: a drill or spike
bit.
•
Insert the drill or spike bit, horizontal and
parallel, through the indent of the grommet ,
making sure not to extend further than 25mm
through the grommet surface, this will help
eliminate any possible damage to items on the
passenger side of the grommet.
