PACKARD ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS B.3
GENERAL
From a servicing standpoint, there are two basic types of
Packard electrical connectors, those with pull-to-seat termi-
nals and those with push-to-seat terminals.
Look into the mating end of the connector. If it appears that
the terminal can be extracted from this side, then it is proba-
bly the pull-to-seat type.
At least one Packard pull-to-seat terminal can be easily rec-
ognized by the presence of a locking ear. The ear engages a
slot in the connector housing and prevents the terminal from
being removed from the wire end side of the connector. The
ear also acts as a strain relief in the event that the wires are
pulled and further inhibits movement of the terminal inside
the chamber. For an example of this type of connector, note
the MAP sensor connector [80].
Unlike most connectors, where the terminals are pulled out
the wire end of the connector, to remove the terminals from
the pull-to-seat connectors, the terminal is pushed out the
mating end of the connector. Once a
new terminal is crimped
onto the end of the wire, the wire is pulled to draw the termi-
nal back inside the chamber of the connector housing.
Two types of Packard pull-to-seat electrical connectors are
used. One type has an external latch to lock the pin and
socket halves together, while the other makes use of a wire-
form. See
Figure B-14. The manner in which the terminals
are picked differs between these two types of connectors, as
further described below.
