Checking For Poor Fit of Terminals
*Loose terminal fit can cause a number of intermittent problems in electrical circuits. By using the Terminal Inspection Feeler Tool Set T/N 07XAJ-OO1000A, you can inspect the terminal fit between the two matching connectors without removing the terminals from the connector body.**1. Find the terminal tool that best matches the male terminal in the mating connector.*
*2. Insert the terminal tool into the female terminal, and then remove the terminal tool.*
*NOTE:
Make sure you do not select a terminal tool that is larger than the mating male terminal because it would spread the female terminal and cause a loose fit.*
*3. Compare the drag to the other terminals in the connector. If the drag is less, replace the terminal with a replacement terminal from the appropriate terminal repair kit.*
