Step 1. Identify the connector and the terminal type.
Confirm whether the connector you require is the non±waterproof, waterproof or combined terminal type
connector from the pictures provided in the following charts.
Connector
Description
Non±Waterproof TypeThose connectors which are not of the
waterproof or combined terminal type.
Waterproof TypeWaterproof material (hole plug or terminal
packing) is provided on the terminal/connector
body.
Combined Terminal TypeTerminals of different shape/size are located in
one connector.
1. Terminal with Wire
Identify the part number of the terminal with wire by picking
out the corresponding illustration from the pictures
provided on the following charts.
HINT: In some of the illustrations, there are two part
numbers for the same illustration of terminal with wire,
because although the shapes of the terminals are
completely the same, there is a difference in with /without
gold±plating (gilded).
Remark: T h e length of the wire connected to the
terminal is approximately 150 mm.

NOTICE:
When the terminal used is gold plated, be sure to
replace it with a gold plated terminal when marking
repairs.
Do not use male and female terminals which are
made of different materials from each other.
2. Connector Body
(a)Identify the part number of the corresponding
terminal with wire according to the above±mentioned
1.
(b)Identify the part number of the connector body by
picking out the correct one from the illustrations
according to the number of terminals and the shape.
HINT:
(a)If you can find no connector which matches the type
you require, pick out male and female connector
bodies as a set which have more terminals than you
require.
For the combined terminal type connector body, pick
out and appropriate connector body for each terminal
being used.
Example:
When two types of terminal are used in one connector
body, pick out a male and female for two different
connector bodies.
(b)The part number has been stamped on the back of
the connector body. (This will continue to be done to
new types of connector.)

waterproof type connector according to the
above±mentioned 1 and 2.
(b)Identify the part number of the hole plug/terminal
packing from the corresponding illustration.
4. Sleeve
When connecting two wires using a sleeve, select the
sleeve according to the following table.
(a)When size is based on the outside diameter of the
wire.

not the wire harness.
HINT: Check to see what kind of connector you are
disconnecting before pulling apart.
Press down type is mainly used.
2. Prepare the Special Tool
HINT: To remove the terminal from the connector, please
construct and use the special tool or like object shown on
the left.
3. Disengage the double locking device or terminal
retainer.
(a)Locking device must be disengaged before the
terminal locking clip can be released and the terminal
removed from the connector.
