Laying the sensor extension cables
When laying cables, ensure that:
They are not kinked or twisted
They do not rub on edges
They are not laid in sharp edged ducts without protection (see fig. 3,
page 4).
The plugs must be connected with the correct polarity. A blocking pin pre-
vents reverse polarity (see fig. 13 A, page 6).
Make sure the locking pin catches (see fig. 13 A, page 6). Only then is
trouble-free operation guaranteed.
To release the connection press the holder and pull the plug and socket
apart (see fig. 13 B, page 6).
If the sensor cable is not long enough, you can order one-metre extension
cables (MWCS-1) as accessories.
Note
The extension cables are marked: L (left), CL (centre left),
R (right), CR (centre right).
This marking helps you connect them to the control electronics to
ensure that the display is correct.
Caution!
Before making any drill holes, ensure that no electrical cables or
other parts of the vehicle can be damaged by drilling, sawing and
filing.
➤ Take suitable precautions to protect holes made in the bodywork from
water penetration, for example by spraying the cable and the sleeve with
sealant.
➤ Where possible, use existing rubber bungs in the boot for laying the
extension cables.
If there are no rubber bungs, make a suitable hole with a diameter of
around 13 mm and insert a cable sleeve.
Note
Pull the plugs of the extension cables through the cable sleeve
before inserting the sleeve in the body work.
