Why do the terminals (pins/sockets) on the wire harness sometimes experience difficulty in insertion or removal, or even retraction of the pins?
The most common cause is chafing or abrasion of the wire insulation. This occurs when the harness rubs against sharp edges, other components, or even itself due to vibration. Once the insulation is worn through, it can lead to short circuits, open circuits, or intermittent signals.
What causes signal interference or crosstalk in wire harnesses during use? How can it be avoided?
The most common cause is chafing or abrasion of the wire insulation. This occurs when the harness rubs against sharp edges, other components, or even itself due to vibration. Once the insulation is worn through, it can lead to short circuits, open circuits, or intermittent signals.
When wiring harness assemblies are installed on equipment, they often interfere with and wear on surrounding parts. How can this be prevented?
