Connector Continuity and Voltage Test
Connector Continuity And Voltage Test:
Connector Continuity And Voltage Test:
Follow the steps below to avoid causing poor connector contact and/or reduced waterproof performance of connectors when checking continuity and/or voltage at connectors of waterproof connectors.
1. If 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.
2. If the connector is disconnected for checking and the facing part is the female pin side, the harness for checking the contact pressure of connector pins, should be used.
CAUTION: Never force the insertion of a test bar, because to do so will cause poor or improper contact.
3. If the facing part is the male pin side, contact the test bar directly to the pins. Care must be taken not to short-circuit the connector pins.
