Electrical System 251
Attach the welder ground cable as
close to the weld area as possible (6
inches or less from the place being
welded).
Do not connect the welder ground ca-
ble to the EECU or its cooling plate.
Welding cables should not be allowed
to lay on, near or cross over any elec-
trical wiring or electronic component
during the welding procedure.
After finishing welding and the welded
areas having cooled, inspect wiring
and components for possible shorts or
damage. In the event of a short circuit,
excessive current will be drawn when
the batteries are reconnected, causing
more damage to the electrical system.
CAUTION
Do not weld on the engine or engine
components. Welding on the engine or
components mounted on the engine can
cause serious damage to the engine
ECU.
