Frontprobe
Notice: Do not insert test equipment probes (DVOM etc.) into any connector or fuse block terminal. The diameter of the test probes will deform most terminals. A deformed terminal will cause a poor connection, which will result in a system failure. Always use the J-35616-C Holden-Approved Terminal Test Kit or the J 42675 Flat-Wire Probe Adapter in order to front probe terminals. Do not use paper clips or other substitutes to probe terminals.
When using the J-35616-C Holden-Approved Terminal Test Kit, ensure the terminal test adapter choice is the correct size for the connector terminal. Do not visually choose the terminal test adapter because some connector terminal cavities may appear larger than the actual terminal in the cavity. Using a larger terminal test adapter will damage the terminal. Refer to the J-35616-C Holden-Approved Terminal Test Kit label on the inside of the J-35616-C Holden-Approved Terminal Test Kit for the correct adapter along with the connector end view for terminal size.Important: Always be sure to reinstall the connector position assurance (CPA) and terminal position assurance (TPA) when reconnecting connectors or replacing terminals.
Disconnect the connector and probe the terminals from the mating side (front) of the connector.

Backprobe
Important:
• Backprobe connector terminals only when specifically required in diagnostic
procedures. • Do not backprobe a sealed (Weather Pack®) connector, less than a 280 series
Metri-Pack connector, a Micro-Pack connector, or a flat wire (dock and lock) connector. • Backprobing can be a source of damage to connector terminals. Use care
in order to avoid deforming the terminal, either by forcing the test probe too far
into the cavity or by using a test probe too large. • After backprobing any connector, inspect for terminal damage. If terminal
damage is suspected, test for correct terminal contact.
Do not disconnect the connector and probe the terminals from the harness side (back) of the connector.
