11. Before removing a faulty component, refer to the

WorkshopManual for removal procedures. Ensure

the starter switch is turned to the ’OFF’ position,

the battery is disconnected and any disconnected

harnesses are supported to avoid any undue strain

at terminals. When replacing the component keep

oily hands away from electrical connection areas

and push connector’s home until any locking tabs

fully engage.

12.Battery charging

Recharge the battery out of the vehicle and keep

the top well ventilated. While being charged or

discharged, and for approximately fifteen minutes

afterwards, batteries emit hydrogen gas. This gas

is inflammable.

Always ensure any battery charging area is well

ventilated and that every precaution is taken to avoid

naked flames and sparks.

c. Remove connectors which have catches by

pressing in the direction indicated by arrows in

the illustration.

d. Connect connectors which have catches by

inserting the connectors until a “snap” noise is

heard.

e. Dirt / corroded terminals result in improper

contact. The terminals should be cleaned

carefully. Improper ontact pressure between

mating terminals disturbs the connectivity

between them.

Replace the damaged connector body to avoid

exposure of the terminals in case of in

adequate contact pressure.

Ensure proper connection between the

terminals to the wire. Rectify the loose

connection by repairing / replacing the wire

harness.

Worn out insulation of the wire may result in

short circuit Avoid water entering in the

connectors.
