Assembly Contact Insertion (DTM, DT, DTP)
Contact Removal
1. Grasp crimped contact
approximately 1.0” (25.4mm)
behind the contact barrel.
2. Hold connector with rear
grommet facing you.
3. Push contact straight into
connector grommet until a click
is felt. A slight tug will confirm
that it is properly locked in
place.
4. Once all contacts are in place,
insert orange wedge: receptacles
- with half holes aligning with
contacts. Plugs - with contacts
aligning behind full holes. The
orange wedge will snap into
place.
1. Remove orange wedge using
needlenose pliers to pull wedge
straight out.
2. To remove the contacts,
gently pull wire backwards,
while at the same time releasing
the locking finger by moving it
away from the contact with a
screwdriver.
3. Hold the rear seal in place,
as removing the contact will
displace the seal.
NOTE: The receptacle is shown
- use the same procedure for
plug.
