2. DESCRIPTION
Each fixture consists of a one–piece locating plate,
housing support, front wire comb, and rear wire comb.
The polarizing tab is used to properly orient the
applicator or tooling assembly with the fixture.
3. SETUP
Select the connector according to the color code that
matches the wire size as shown in Figure 2.
Then select the connector size according to the
required number of contact positions. Refer to
Figure 1 to make sure that the fixture is compatible
with the connector and method of application.
Proceed as follows:

1. Prepare the cable according to 408–9515.
If using the tooling assembly (58040–1), proceed
to Section 4, otherwise continue with the following
steps.
2. Determine the location on the harness board for
the fixture. Make sure space is provided for lengths
of wire between connectors. Refer to Figure 3.

4. TERMINATION PROCEDURE
Refer to Figure 5, and proceed as follows:
5. INSPECTING TERMINATED CONNECTOR
CAUTION
3. Drill holes in the board for mounting the fixture.
Refer to Figure 4 for recommended board layout. If
using connector assembly for testing, cut a slot for
the post retainer assembly.
4. Attach the fixture to the board using screws,
washers, and nuts, or suitable commercially
available hardware.
5. Place wire roll at a convenient location for lacing
into the fixture.
1. Spread the fixture wire combs apart, and insert
the connector, mating end first, into the center of
the receiving track. Make sure that the connector
shoulder is behind the locating plate and the
connector ribs are aligned with the slots in the wire
comb.
2. Lace a wire over the slot in the wire combs that
aligns with the applicable connector contact. Make
sure that the wire is straight, then press the wire
into the slot until it bottoms in the wire combs.
Repeat this step until all wires are positioned.
3. Terminate the connector according to 408–4260
(if using applicator assembly) or 408–6701 (if using
tooling assembly).
4. Spread the fixture wire combs apart, and lift the
connector out of the fixture.
1. Visually inspect the connector to make sure that
there is no damage to the housing or contacts.
Damaged products should not be used.
NOTE
2. If applicable, test the connector for continuity
using the post retainer assembly.
NOTE
The connector must be located in the center of
the receiving track. Do NOT place more than two
connectors end to end in the fixture.
For detailed inspection requirements, refer to
Application Specification 114–1019.
The post retainer assembly is only included with
some fixtures. Post Retainer Assembly 310672–1
is available as an accessory for Fixtures
58009–1, 58009–2, 58010–1, 58010–2, 59846–1,
59847–1, 59847–3, 59848–1, 59848–3, 59849–1,
and 59849–3 but cannot be used if the fixture is
used with the tooling assembly (58040–1).
