		| 
			
				|  | Release contact (primary lock) using the appropriate release 
				tool. Refer to 
				→ Chapter "Contact Housings, Releasing and Disassembling". |  
			
				|  | Pull contact at single wire out of contact housing. |  
			
				|  | Take the yellow repair wire with the correct contact out of 
				the Wiring Harness Repair Set -VAS1978-. |  
			
				|  | Free up repair point of vehicle-specific wiring harness 
				(approximately 20 cm to both sides of repair point). |  
			
				|  | If required, remove wiring harness wrapping using a folding 
				knife. |  |  |   | 
	
		| 
			
				|  | Insert new contact of repair wire into contact housing until 
				it engages. |  
			
				|  | Slide a single wire seal onto the repair wire. |  
			   Note 
			
				| When doing this, small diameter of single seal must point 
				toward contact housing. |  
			
				|  | Slide single wire seal into contact housing using the 
				correct assembly tool. Refer to 
				→ Chapter "Single Wire Seals, Installing". |  |  |   | 
	
		| 
			
				|  | Shorten the repair wire and the vehicle-specific wiring 
				harness single wire as needed using the Wiring Harness Repair 
				Set - Wire Strippers -VAS1978/3-. |  |  |   |

				wire using 6 - 7 mm wire stripper. |

				vehicle-specific wiring harness using crimp pliers and a crimp 
				connection as described in chapter "Wire break with single 
				repair point". Refer to

			   Note |  |   |

				| Make sure that crimp connections do not lie directly next to 
				each other when several wires need to be repaired. Arrange the 
				crimp connectors at a slight offset so that the circumference of 
				the wiring harness does not become too large. |  
			
				
				| In the event the repair point was previous taped, this point 
				must be taped anew with yellow insulating tape after repairs. |  
			
				
				| Secure the repaired wiring harness if necessary with a cable 
				tie to prevent flapping noises while driving. |  |  |   |
