Disassembly and Assembly

This section provides the detailed disassembly and reassembly information.

4.5.1.1

Disassembly

Procedure:

1 Disconnect the negative terminal from the vehicle battery. Make sure that the battery cable is

secured such that it cannot power the vehicle electrical system.

2 Unscrew both jackscrews completely.

3 Pull the accessory connector assembly out from the radio.

4 Loosen both cover screws, but do not remove them completely.

5 Pull the jackscrews away from the plug and hold them back.

6 Pry apart the accessory connector assembly covers.

7 Attach any new wire to its proper location by pushing in the male terminal. When you hear a

pop, the wire is engaged. To verify that the wire is engaged, tug gently on the wire and be sure

that it does not come out. To avoid severe damage to the plug, do not overload the wire.

4.5.1.2

Assembly

Procedure:

1 Place the plug-in one cover. Be sure that the flange of the plug is in the slot of the cover.

See Figure 97: Exploded View of Accessory Connector Assembly (HLN6863_) on page 95.

2 Push the jackscrew through the plug to hold it in.

3 Position each wire across the strain-relief features in the cover. Avoid damaging loads on the

plug by allowing some slack in each wire in the accessory connector wire chamber.

4 Place the second cover onto the plug. Be sure that the flange is protruding through both covers.
