J 38125-B  Terminal Repair Kit

Use the following repair procedures in order to repair the following:

  • Push to Seat terminals
  • Pull to Seat terminals
  • Weather Pack® terminals

Some terminals do not require all of the steps shown. Skip the steps that do not apply for your immediate terminal repair. The J 38125-B  contains further information.

  1. Cut off the terminal between the core and the insulation crimp. Minimize any wire loss. For Weather Pack® terminals, remove the seal.
  2. Apply the correct seal per gage size of the wire. For Weather Pack® terminals, slide the seal back along the wire in order to enable insulation removal.
  3. Remove the insulation.
  4. For Weather Pack® terminals only, align the seal with the end of the cable insulation.
  5. Position the strip in the terminal. For Weather Pack® terminals, position the strip and seal in the terminal.
  6. Hand crimp the core wings.
  7. Hand crimp the insulation wings. For Weather Pack® terminals, hand crimp the insulation wings around the seal and the cable.
  8. Solder all of the hand crimp terminals excepting Micro-Pack 100 World terminals. Soldering Micro-Pack 100 World terminals may damage the terminal.
