Doors-Off Connections
Advantages: New locking system with spring One hand mounting For left or right doors Easy assembly and dis-assembly
14
Doors-Off Connections
Doors-off connections provide an easy means of connecting body wiring to door wiring, especially if the doors are assembled off-line
The system incorporates many patented Delphi design features Lever Lock mechanical assist means that high circuit count connections can be mated with the fingers
Grommet/connector retainer
Provides positive, one-handed installation of the grommet to the sheetmetal
Pre-staged MBS
Protects blades during shipment and vehicle assembly plant processing and handling
15
Doors-Off Connections
Design Versatility
Systems are designed to have the connector snap into the grommet/connector retainer
Allows the connector to be used elsewhere in the vehicle as part of an inline connection system Also allows the same connector to be used in a different door application by simply changing the grommet/connector retainer geometry
