Connector Continuity and Voltage Tests

When checking continuity and/or voltage at the waterproof connectors, follow the steps below to avoid poor connector contact and/or reduced waterproof performance of connectors.

Connector Continuity And Voltage Test:

1. When checking is performed with the circuit in the state of continuity, be sure to use the special tool (harness connector). Never insert a test bar from the harness side, because to do so will reduce the waterproof performance and result in corrosion.

Connector Continuity And Voltage Test:

2. When the connector is disconnected for checking the female pin, the harness for checking the contact pressure of connector pins should be used. Never force the insertion of a test bar, because to do so will cause poor contact.

3. When the male pin is to be checked, apply the test bar against the pin directly. Care must be taken not to Short-Circuit the connector pins.
