Installation Procedure, Continued
Battery Cable Fusing
A fuse must be installed in each cable connecting the ABS switch to the chassis and auxiliary batteries (Refer to Figure 1). Each fuse
must be located within 16 inches of the respective battery. Refer to Table A for the minimum fuse size for each ABS switch model.
Connect the Power Cables
Prepare the two cables to the batteries using a suitable size cable for the current required and install a crimped lug terminal on the end.
Install a fuse in each battery cable. The fuse rating must match the ABS rated current capacity. Install the fuses within 16 inches of the
battery. Terminal T1 is connected to the positive terminal of the chassis battery and terminal T2 is connected to the positive terminal of the
auxiliary battery. It is good engineering practice to use protective boots over terminals T1 and T2. Install the boots over the cables and
lugs, then install the cables as shown in the Figure 5 diagram.
Torque the nut to the torque specification shown in the Figure 5
diagram.
The terminals may then be coated with a standard battery terminal protective sealant. Slide the boots over the lugs and onto the
power terminals.
