GI-38 < BASIC INSPECTION > SERVICE INFORMATION FOR ELECTRICAL INCIDENT • Some connectors do not have a notch above each terminal. To probe each terminal, remove the connector retainer to make con- tact space for probing. MALE TERMINAL • Carefully probe the contact surface of each terminal using a “T” pin. CAUTION: Dot not bend terminal. How to Check Enlarged Contact Spring of Terminal • An enlarged contact spring of a terminal may create intermittent signals in the circuit. • If the intermittent open circuit occurs, follow the procedure below to inspect for open wires and enlarged con- tact spring of female terminal. 1. Assemble a male terminal and approx. 10 cm (3.9 in) of wire. NOTE: Use a male terminal which matches the female terminal. 2. Disconnect the suspected faulty connector and hold it terminal side up. 3. While holding the wire of the male terminal, try to insert the male terminal into the female terminal. CAUTION: Do not force the male terminal into the female terminal with your hands.
