Connector symbolsINFOID:0000000003771182
Most of connector symbols in wiring diagrams are shown from the terminal side.
• Connector symbols shown from the terminal side are enclosed by a single line and followed by the direction mark.
• Connector symbols shown from the harness side are enclosed by a double line and followed by the direction mark.
• Certain systems and components, especially those related to
OBD, may use a new style slide-locking type harness connector.
For description and how to disconnect, refer to PG section,
“Description”, “HARNESS CONNECTOR”.
• Male and female terminals Connector guides for male terminals are shown in black and
female terminals in white in wiring diagrams.

SWITCH POSITIONS
Switches are shown in wiring diagrams as if the vehicle is in the “normal” condition.
A vehicle is in the “normal” condition when:
Number Item Description
1 Power supply • This means the power supply of fusible link or fuse.
2 Fusible link • “X” means the fusible link.
3 Number of fusible link/
fuse • This means the number of fusible link or fuse location.
4 Fuse • “/” means the fuse.
5 Current rating of fus-
ible link/fuse • This means the current rating of the fusible link or fuse.
6 Optional splice • The open circle shows that the splice is optional depending on vehicle application.
7 Connector number • The letter shows which harness the connector is located in.
• Example “M”: main harness. For detail and to locate the connector, refer to
PG-64, "
Elec-
trical Units Location", PG-41, "Harness Layout".
8Splice • The shaded circle “ ” means the splice.
9 Page crossing • This circuit continues to an adjacent page.
10 Option abbreviation • This means the vehicle specifications which layouts the circuit between “ ”.
11 Relay • This shows an internal representation of the relay.
12 Option description • This shows a description of the option abbreviation used on the page.
13 Switch • This shows that continuity exists between terminals 1 and 2 when the switch is in the A
position. Continuity exists between terminals 1 and 3 when the switch is in the B position.
14 Circuit (Wiring) • This means the wiring.
15 System branch • This shows that the circuit is branched to other systems.
16 Shielded line • The line enclosed by broken line circle shows shield wire.
17 Component name • This shows the name of a component.
18 Ground (GND) • This shows the ground connection.
19 Connector • This means the connector information.
• This unit-side is described by the connector symbols.
20 Connectors • This means that a transmission line bypasses two connectors or more.
21 Wire color • This shows a code for the color of the wire.
B = Black
W = White
R = Red
G = Green
L = Blue
Y = Yellow
LG = Light Green BR = Brown
OR or O = Orange
P = Pink
PU or V (Violet) = Purple
GY or GR = Gray
SB = Sky Blue
CH = Dark Brown
DG = Dark Green
• When the wire color is striped, the base color is given first, followed by the stripe color as shown below:
Example: L/W = Blue with White Stripe
22 Terminal number • This means the terminal number of a connector.

HOW TO READ WIRING DIAGRAMS
• ignition switch is “OFF”,
• doors, hood and trunk lid/back door are closed,
• pedals are not depressed, and
• parking brake is released.
MULTIPLE SWITCH
The continuity of multiple switch is described in two ways as shown below.
• The switch chart is used in schematic diagrams.
• The switch diagram is used in wiring diagrams.
