APPENDIX E Remove the FAKRA Housing for Cable
Installation (optional)
To remove the FAKRA housing, so it can fit through a small hole, follow the steps below.
1. Remove the locking clip (Figure 58) from the plastic housing using a small pair of electronics pliers.
Do not lose the locking clip. You require it later.

2. Pull off the plastic housing (Figure 58) from the cable’s main body.
The exposed ferrule has a maximum diameter slightly wider than the cable.
3. Push the cable through the hole (Figure 59).
