Service Bulletin #4
CONNECTOR CRIMPS
Field Failure: The entire Power
Touch system will not function, all lights are dead.
Unit:
7035 New, Assembled at Miller Plant - TN.
Cause:
The power cable to the passenger side PDC was open at the circuit breaker.
Diagnosis: The
crimp on the cable connector was insufficient to provide a secure mechanical
connection. Heat shrink tubing applied to the assembly covered the connector
holding the wire and connector together. Vibration, arcing, and or moisture
eventually developed corrosion inside the assembly until the electrical
connection between the wire and connector failed.
Field
Service: Customer installed new connector on
the battery power cable.
Recommended Corrective Action:
Installation of cable connectors shall only be done with an approved ratcheting
crimp tool specifically designed for the size wire and connector used.
