Wiring

Pin Connection Details

The ADL pin connection list appears at the back of this manual.

Wire

Use 22# Tefzel wire (Mil Spec M22759/16-22) (5 amps max at 100

°C)

Note that the Tefzel wire is difficult to strip unless the correct stripping tool is
used. Be careful not to nick the wires as this may result in wire failure or poor
crimping.

Some sensor connectors may not be available with 22# terminals, in which
case doubling the wire over gives the equivalent of an 18# wire, which is
suitable for many of the common sensor terminals.

For full wire specifications see Appendix N: Wire Specifications.

Crimping

Ensure that the correct crimping tool is used for all contacts to ensure a
reliable connection.

Power

Power the ADL via a separate switch and a 5 Amp fuse. The separate switch
is recommended so that the computer can communicate with the ADL without
needing to turn the rest of the vehicle power on.

Ground

Ground the ADL to a good ground. The ground should have a direct
connection to the vehicle battery.
