- Open the pin housing secondary locking by Turing the two rings as shown. A "click" indicates that the secondary locking has disengaged.

Extract the cable terminal







No terminal removal tool is required.

- Extract the cable terminal from the rear of the housing by pulling on the cable.

Crimp new cable terminal







The cable terminal is 1.6 Pin.

- use strip length 3 to 4 mm and strip the cable as described in stripping a cable.
- Use crimp tool (green) p/n 9814226 and crimp the cable terminal as described in Terminal crimping.

Insert the new cable terminal in housing







NOTE: The housing secondary locking must be open as in (NC3).

- Insert the new cable terminal in pin housing from the cable side in the correct cavity. A "click" indicates that the catch has engaged.

Close socket housings







Secondary locking
- Close the housing and activate secondary locking by turning both the ring sections as shown in the illustration. A "click" indicates that the secondary locking has engaged.

Check
- Carefully pull on the cables to check the terminal is firmly attached.

Reassemble the connector







- Insert the pin housing in the outer shell. The tab slot should be lined up with the guide groove.
