Measure 152 mm [6 in] back from the face of the connector and remove the wiring harness protective cover.
Before installing the new connector, perform a test fit to make sure the connector is keyed correctly.
Refer to the appropriate wiring repair kit in the service tools table in the front of Section 19 for the correct repair connector.
Replace one contact wire at a time. If more than one wire needs replaced, attach a lettered tag to each wire removed.

Use wire crimping tool, Part Number 3822930, to cut the wires. Cut the first wire 91 mm [3-½ in] from the face of the connector.
Cut the remaining seven wires in increments of 12 mm [½ in] back from the previous cut.

Install the terminal repair wires on the bare wires and use the wire crimping tool to crimp the terminal.
