Inspection and Cleaning of the Trailer Cab

p3 mm 54.01
  1. Disconnect the trailer electrical cables from the sockets at the cab.
  2. Inspect the cables and sockets for evidence of corrosion, and clean as necessary. If a socket is too badly corroded to clean, replace it. If corrosion has gotten into the wires and connectors inside the socket, replace the cable.
  3. Important: If using a spray cleaner to remove corrosion, be careful to protect any surrounding painted surfaces.
  4. Coat the inside of the sockets with a lithium-based dielectric grease such as Lubriplate FLP DS–ES.
  5. Connect the cables.
