7.2 Laying cables
A
NOTICE!
Before drilling any holes, ensure that no electrical cables or other parts of the vehicle
can be damaged by drilling, sawing and filing.
I
NOTE
• As far as possible, use original ducts for laying the cables, or other suitable options
such as panelling edges, ventilation grilles or dummy plugs. If there is no rubber
plug, produce a suitable hole with a diameter of around 13 mm and insert a cable
bushing sleeve.
• Cables and connections that are not properly installed will cause malfunctions or
damage to components. Correct installation of cables and connections ensures
lasting and trouble-free operation of the retrofitted components.
Therefore, please observe the following instructions:
• Wherever possible, lay cables inside the vehicle, as they are better protected there than
outside.
If you do need to lay a cable outside the vehicle, ensure that it is well fastened (use additional
cable ties, insulating tape etc.).
• To prevent damage to the cables when laying them, ensure that they are far enough away from
hot or moving vehicle components (exhaust pipes, drive shafts, light systems, fans, heaters,
etc.).
• Wrap good-quality insulating tape around the plug connections of the connecting cables and
every connection on a cable (including inside the vehicle) to ensure no water can penetrate
them (fig. 5 page 5). The most suitable tape for this is self-vulcanising tape, e.g. made by 3M.
• When laying the cables, make sure:
– They are not kinked or twisted
– They do not rub on edges
– They are not laid in sharp-edged ducts without protection (fig. 2, page 3).
• Attach the cables securely in the vehicle with cable binders, insulating tape or by glueing them
to prevent them from being tripped over.
