Flat Wire (Dock & Lock) Connectors

2001 Chevrolet Venture Base, Van Cargo ExtendedSECTION Flat Wire (Dock & Lock) Connectors

There are no serviceable parts for flat wire (dock and lock) connectors on the harness side or the component side. Follow the procedure below in order to test terminal contact.

  1. Remove the component in question.
  2. Visually inspect each side of the connector for signs of contamination. Avoid touching either side of the connector as oil from your skin may be a source of contamination as well.
  3. Visually inspect the terminal bearing surfaces of the flat wire circuits for splits, cracks, or other imperfections that could cause poor terminal contact. Visually inspect the component side connector to ensure that all of the terminals are uniform and free of damage or deformation.
  4. Insert the appropriate adapter from the flat-wire probe adapter on the flat wire harness connector in order to test the circuit in question.
