A two layer wire - 1 and 2 - with a 0.35 mm 2 profile is used as a FlexRay wire.





• During repair work, both wires must have the same length.

• When twisting the wires - 1 and 2 - together, the - A - = 30 mm routing length must be maintained.

• While doing so, no section of wire may be greater than - B - = 30 mm without twisting the wires, for example, in the area of crimp connectors - arrow -.

• Maximum exposed wire length: 100 mm.

• Protect the area being repairs from the environment. Use a crimp connector with heat-shrinkable tube over the untwisted location being repairs and waterproof insulation over the exposed wire.
