Repair Guidelines
The Harness Repair Kit includes an illustrated instruction booklet. However, there are 
additional repair guidelines that should be adhered to.
Twisted Pairs
Twisted pairs of wires (CAN bus, ABS wiring, etc.) can be repaired as required. When 
repairing a twisted pair of wires do not unwind the existing wires any more than necessary. 
Before completing the repair, replicate as closely as possible the original twisting pattern on 
any new wiring.

Repair Methods
The following process should be used when carrying out a repair:
CAUTION: Before starting any work, ensure the vehicle battery has been 
disconnected. Work must not start on the vehicle for a further ten minutes. This 
allows the SRS and Satellite Navigation systems time to de-energise.
1. Using the cutter/stripping tool, cut the wire to be repaired and strip the required 
amount of insulation from the wire.
2. Slide an appropriately sized heat shrink...
