System with Cell Temperature
Systems that monitor the cell temperature will have a choice of two types of sense lead harnesses. The
first harness uses a quick connect for the temperature sensor, and the second harness uses a ring
terminal for the temperature sensor. In either case, the red and black leads of the harness attach to the
corresponding terminals of the battery (red-positive, black-negative). The temperature sensor will either
connect to a tab washer quick connect or be secured under the bolt for the intercell connector,
depending on the type of cell being monitored. This cable is factory terminated on the end that attaches
to the battery. The other end must be cut to the desired length, stripped, and attached to the connector
with the connector’s set screws. After terminating the cable to the connector, be sure to place a wire
marker at the connector end to identify which cell it is monitoring for connector placement. The
following illustrations show this scenario and must be duplicated for each cell.
