2.10.2 disconnection and reconnection
of electrical components
1. Note the position of all the connectors before they
are removed.
2. When reconnecting components, ensure
connectors are refitted in the same positions as
noted on removal. If in doubt refer to the relevant
circuit wiring diagram.
3. If renewing halogen type bulbs do not touch the
bulb glass with the fingers. If necessary, wipe the
glass clean using a cloth moistened in denatured
alcohol (methylated spirit).
4. If renewing fuses, always switch off the affected
circuit first and fit a new fuse of the correct ampere
rating, (refer to label on fuse box cover or fuse
list in vehicle Operator’s Handbook or Workshop
Manual if in doubt). If the new fuse also fails,
investigate the cause and rectify.
Caution:
dO NOT use a fuse with a higher ampere
rating than specified, and under no
circumstances bridge the fuse terminals
with anything other than a fuse. Non-
observance of the latter may cause
components to be damaged and/or wiring
to overheat, leading to a fire.
2.11 welding on or near the vehicle
Exercise extreme care when carrying out welding
operations. Electric arc welding will seriously damage
any electronic items fitted to the vehicle.
1. Always stop the engine and disconnect the
batteries and electronic units in the approved
sequence (Refer to chassis‑cab manufacturer’s
workshop manual for information and instructions)
before carrying out any welding repairs.
2. Ensure that the vehicle is not leaking diesel, oil or
hydraulic fluids as these may ignite whilst welding.
3. Always have a serviceable fire extinguisher close at
hand.
4. Wear eye protection to protect eyes from welding
flash.
5. Erect protective screens to protect other personnel
from the dangers of the area.
