NOTE: The illustrations in this service information are used for different model years and/or models. Some variation may occur. However, the essential information in the illustrations is always correct.

Information

NOTE: In 2003 the cable terminal with a precrimped cable section was introduced to the Volvo range. This method applies for repairs with this type of cable terminal.

Preparatory work







Disconnect the battery negative lead.

Removal

CAUTION: Disconnect and work with only one cable at a time to minimize the risk of mixing them up.

Disconnect the cable terminal that is to be replaced.

HINT: If several cable terminals are to be replaced at the same time, spread out the splice points.







Cut the cable at a suitable point. Note the length of the new cable terminal cable.

Installation







- Select a cable terminal with the same area as the old one.
- Select a butt connector that corresponds to the cable area. The butt connector is the same color as the cable terminal cable.
- Cut the new cable terminal cable to a suitable length.
- Splice the cables.

Finishing work
- Reinstall the cable harness. If necessary use a crimping sleeve and tie straps.
- Connect the battery negative lead.
- Test the function.
