Function/location
All vehicle connectors are identified by their function and location. Refer to Table B-1.
Place and color
The place (number of wire cavities of a connector housing) and color of the connector can also aid identification.
Connector number
On wiring diagrams and in service/repair instructions, connectors are identified by a number in brackets.
Repair instructions
The repair instructions in Appendix A are by connector type. Refer to Table B-1.
