Weather Pack Connectors

The following is the proper procedure for the repair of Weather Pack(R) Connectors.




^ Separate the connector halves (1).
^ Open the secondary lock. A secondary lock aids in terminal retention and is usually molded to the connector (1).
^ Grasp the wire and push the terminal to the forward most position. Hold the wire in this position.




^ Insert the Weather Pack(R) terminal removal tool into the front (mating end) of the connector cavity until it rests on the cavity shoulder (1).
^ Gently pull on the wire to remove the terminal through the back of the connector (2).

IMPORTANT: Never use force to remove a terminal from a connector.

^ Inspect the terminal and connector for damage. Repair as necessary. Refer to Repairing Connector Terminals.
^ Reform the lock tang (2) and reset terminal in connector body.
^ Close secondary locks and join connector halves.
^ Verify that circuit is complete and working satisfactorily.
^ Perform system check.
