INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTION
Most intermittent are caused by faulty electrical connections or wir-
ing, although a sticking relay or solenoid can occasionally be at
fault. When checking it for proper connection, perform careful
check of suspect circuits for:
Poor mating of connector halves, or terminals not fully seated in
the connector body (backed out).
Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. The terminals must be clean
and free of any foreign material which could impede proper ter-
minal contact. However, cleaning the terminal with a sand paper
or the like is prohibited.
Damaged connector body, exposing the terminals to moisture
and dirt, as well as not maintaining proper terminal orientation
with the component or mating connector.
Improperly formed or damaged terminals.
Check each connector terminal in problem circuits carefully to
ensure good contact tension by using the corresponding mating
terminal.
If contact tension is not enough, reform it to increase contact ten-
sion or replace.
1. Check contact tension by inserting and removing just once
2. Check each terminal for bend and proper alignment
Poor terminal-to-wire connection.
Check each wire harness in problem circuits for poor connection
by shaking it by hand lightly. If any abnormal condition is found,
repair or replace.
Wire insulation which is rubbed through, causing an intermittent
short as the bare area touches other wiring or parts of the ve-
hicle.
Wiring broken inside the insulation. This condition could cause
continuity check to show a good circuit, but if only 1 or 2 strands
of a multi-strand-type wire are intact, resistance could be far too
high.
If any abnormality is found, repair or replace.
