Important: Twisted-pair wires provide an effective "shield" that helps protect
sensitive electronic components from electrical interference. Depending on
application, twisted-pair wires are used on wiring harnesses connecting
the following components:
| • | Data link connector (DLC) |
| • | Electronic brake control module (EBCM) |
| • | Powertrain control module (PCM) |
In order to prevent electrical interference from degrading the performance
of the connected components, you must maintain the proper specification when
making any repairs to the twisted-pair wires shown :
| • | The wires must be twisted a minimum of 12 turns per 30.5 cm (12
in) as measured anywhere along the length of the wires. |
| • | The outside diameter of the twisted wires must not exceed 6.0 mm (0.236
in). |
