Ensure proper connection between the terminal

to the wire. Rectify the loose connection by

repairing / replacing the wire harness (Fig. 10).

Towing the Vehicle : Fig. 11.

For towing the best way is to use a wrecker.

Alternatively use a rigid tow bar.

Avoid using a flexible cable or rope as your

vehicle may crash into the towing vehicle when

it stops suddenly.

Switch ‘ON’ the hazard warning signals of both

the vehicles to warn other road users.

l

Where possible, keep the engine idling so that

power steering assistance and brake vacuum are

available.

In case of brake failure, use the parking brake to

control the vehicle.
