Laying cables
Caution!
Before making any drill holes, ensure that no electrical cables or other parts of
the vehicle can be damaged by drilling, sawing and filing.
As far as possible use original openings or alternative openings for the
connecting cable duct, e. g. the paneling edges, ventilation grilles or blank
panels. If there are no rubber bungs, make a suitable hole with a diameter of
around 13 mm and insert a cable sleeve.
Cables and connections which are not properly installed will cause
malfunctions or damage to components. Correct installation of cables and
connections is the basic prerequisite for lasting and trouble-free operation of
the retrofitted components.
Please observe the following instructions:
z
Wherever possible lay cables inside the vehicle, as they are better protected inside
than outside the vehicle.
If you do need to lay a cable outside the vehicle, ensure that it is well secured (use
additional cable ties, insulating tape, etc.).
z
To prevent damage to the cables, when laying them ensure that there is sufficient
distance to hot or moving vehicle components (exhaust pipes, drive shafts, light
systems, fans, heater etc.).
z
Wrap insulating tape around the plug connections of the connecting cables and every
connection on a cable (including inside the vehicle) to protect them from penetrating
water (
d
B, page 8). The most suitable tape for this purpose is self-vulcanising
tape, for example, 3M.
z
When laying electric connections, ensure that
–
They are not kinked or twisted
–
They do not rub on edges
–
They are not laid in sharp edged ducts without protection (
3
, page 4)
z
Attach the cables securely in the vehicles with cable binders, insulating tape or by
gluing them to prevent them catching (tripping hazard).
z
Protect every through-hole made in the outer skin of the bodywork against water
penetration , e. g. by using a cable with a sealant and by spraying the cable and the
the cable sleeve with sealant.
Do not start sealing the through-holes until all installation work has
been finished for the camera, and the required cable lengths have been
established.
