Additional Information
Fuse details Fuse
Contains information on fuse functions and values and should be used together with the power distribution circuit diagrams to establish which systems share a common power supply and to ensure that correct value fuses are fitted.
Earth points and headers Ground Locations
Shows a plan view of the vehicle with location of all earth points. Supporting photographs and connector detail information appear in the Connector View. Connector Views
Description and Operation
Presented at the component or system/subsystem within the ALLDATA hierarchy, each of the descriptions contains a brief overview of the main system functions and includes reference to the appropriate wire colors. Always read the Description and Operation before starting work on a system so that a good understanding of system functionality is obtained.
Each electrical item uses a description common on the circuit diagrams and the connector details.
Connector Details Connector Views
The information found at Connector Views is effectively an index of every electrical connector on the vehicle, including headers and eyelets. Connector information comprises:
- Connector Number - The assigned number, prefixed "C".
- Connector Name - Usually derived from the component to which the connection is made.
- Male/Female - If applicable, identifies the gender of the connector pins (NOT the housing) as Male or Female. Generally, connectors mating directly to a component have Female pins.
- Colour - If applicable, the colour of the connector housing is shown. NATURAL is used to describe connectors with a clear/translucent plastic finish.
- Location Statement - Used in conjunction with the photograph to determine the location of the connector.
- Image - Shows the location of the subject connector. In most cases, the photograph will indicate the amount of trim removal necessary to reveal the connector. For convenience some images identify more than one connector.
- Face View - An outline of the connector housing, viewed from the front, showing pin numbers (if applicable).
- Pin-out Table - A three column table, detailing the colour and position of each wire in the connector:
1. Cav: The connector pin (cavity) number.
2. Col: The colour of wire populating the connector pin.
3. Cct: Identifies the model or feature which uses the wire.
ALL means applicable to all models in the range fitted with the feature or system in question.
In instances where different models, features or systems require different colour wires to be fitted in a cavity, each instance of the cavity is included in the Pin-out table.
NOTE: In some instances not all cavities may contain wires.
Example - 9 pin connector
Where necessary a table listing the circuit reference numbers against a description of the model or features which may or may not be fitted, can be found at the beginning of the Connector view. A sample of a typical table is shown below:
Cct Model or feature
1 Premium ICE
2 Non Premium ICE
3 Diesel
4 Diesel Auto
5 V8
6 V8 Auto
7 Power seats
