(7) Indication of shielded cables
A shielded cable used , for example, in an electronic control circuit for prevention of malfunctions that may
otherwise be caused by radio interference is indicated by a solid line sandwiched between dashed lines ( E).
(8) Indication of specification-dependent connectors
With regard to harness connectors, the inter-device and -harness connectors which vary in shape or position on
different vehicle specifications, such as those with rear wipers and turbocharger and those without turbo-
charger, are given a specification-dependent connector identification symbol (lower case alphabet) following the
connector symbol.
Example: A - Ola
Specification - dependent connector identification symbol
a : Vehicles with a manual transmission
b : Vehicles with an automatic transmission
c : Vehicles with a power window
d : Vehicles without a power window
(9) Shapes of connectors
The connector shapes are indicated by simplified symbolic marks. For distinction between male and female
connectors, refer to HOW TO IDENTIFY CONNECTORS.
Refer to Item (8)
The b at the end of the connector symbol
is a specification-dependent connector
identification
symbol and indicates that
the connector is used for vehicles with’
automatic transmission.
