7.1.2 Attach harness groups to your vehicle with clips or ties (provided with this kit)
starting at the fuse block and working your way out to the front and rear groups.
The dash wires should be routed out of the way of any under dash obstacles,
such air conditioning, radio, etc.
7.1.3 When used every 1-1/2” or so on the visible areas of the harness, the plastic
wire ties make a very attractive assembly. A tie wrap in other areas every 6” or
so will hold the wires nicely. Convoluted loom also makes for an attractive
assembly.
CAUTION: DISCONNECT THE POWER FROM YOUR VEHICLE BY REMOVING THE
NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE FROM THE BATTERY.
Note: Make no wire connections or permanent mounting of any kind at this
time!!!
7.2 TERMINAL INSTALLATION AND MAKING CONNECTIONS
Note: In the following steps you will be making circuit connections. Before
you start, you should carefully read Section 8 as appropriate, and
continually refer to Section 10, DOUBLE-CHECKING your routing and
length calculations before cutting any wires and making connections.
Giving special attention to all switches.
7.2.1 Have all needed tools and connectors handy.
7.2.2 Select the correct size for the wire and stud application.
7.2.3 Determine the correct wire length and cut the wire. Remember to always allow
enough slack in the harness and wires at places where movement could possibly
occur, such as automobile body to frame, frame to engine, ect. Double-check
your calculations.
7.2.4 Strip insulation away from wire. Strip only enough nessessory for the type of
terminal lug you are using.
7.2.5 Crimp the terminal onto the wire.
Note: Make sure the terminal is crimped with the proper crimping tool. An
improper crimp will NOT make a good conection.
CAUTION: DO NOT OVER CRIMP
7.2.6 Connecting the harness throughout the groups is a redundant process. Make
sure that each wire is first properly routed and then attach. DO NOT ATTACH
FIRST THEN ROUTE AFTERWARD.
7.2.7 When all wires are attached, tighten the mounts and ties to secure the harness
permanently.
7.3 GROUNDING THE AUTOMOBILE
A perfectly and beautifully wired automobile will neverless have bugs and problems if
everything is not properly grounded. Do not go to the careful effort of installing a quality
harness only to neglect proper grounding.
7.3.1 Connect a Ground strap or Cable (even a 10-gauge is too small) from the
Negitive Battery terminal to the vehicle chassis (frame).
7.3.2 Connect a Ground Strap from the Engine to the Chassis. DO NOT RELY UPON
THE MOTOR MOUNTS TO MAKE THIS CONNECTION.
7.3.3 Connect a Ground Strap from the Engine to the Body.
