Installation recommendations:
– always disconnect the battery before doing any work on the wiring, starting from the negative pole
– carefully clean the contact surfaces on the bodywork and engine (sanding sponge, fine sandpaper), remove corrosion and old deposits of paint or dirt
– check that all connections are tight – a firm and clean connection without play is important for the frame
– use suitable washers and screws with an undamaged thread, or treat the joints with a thin layer of anti-corrosion spray
– make sure the harness is correctly routed in the engine compartment so that it does not come into contact with the exhaust, sharp edges or moving parts
– after assembly, check engine starting and voltage stability of the on-board network (voltage drop at start-up, behavior of lights and on-board systems)
