1. Start by removing the battery from the car.

2. Remove the charging harness and the stock positive terminal

harness from the battery. This will be connected to the starter

on the stock D/B series engine.

3. Cut the wire down to the appropriate length. An easy and quick

measurement is to cut it as long as the other wire.

4. Take the charge harness and remove the plastic covering.

5. Cut back the loom to expose the two wires

inside.

6. Remove the red plastic terminal cover.


5/11

7. After you have exposed the bare terminal, stick it in a vice with

the crimp facing up.

8. There are a couple ways of opening up the crimp. You can take a

dremel and cut the seam and pry the two apart, you can hammer a

flat tipped pry bar in between and separate the crimp. Either

way, you must open the crimp without damaging it.

9. Now that you have removed the crimp/terminal from the wires, you

can now cut the terminal off. This should be all that is left.


7/11

10. Take the OEM terminal and the RSX charge harness wire and put

them inside of the crimp, make sure that the terminal is facing

the right direction. Make sure that if you are using heat shrink

to slip on a piece before you connect the two wires, otherwise itwill not fit over the terminal.

11. Tighten the vice so that the crimp sandwiches the two wires

together. This connection should be very strong and solid. Cover

the joint with heat shrink or a protective covering. Wrap in

electrical tape.

12. Once the positive terminal is finished, you now must modify the

other wire on the RSX charge harness. Since it has an end made

for the RSX fuse box, we must modify it to fit into an EG/DC/EKfuse box.

13. Put the end in a vice.


9/11

14. Take a dremel or cutoff wheel and cut the bigger part of the

tab off.

15. Turn the tab over and drill a hole(5mm) in the center. You can

smooth off the edges with a table grinder.


10/11

16. Now you can re-loom and tape the modified harness. Mock the

harness up in the engine bay and make sure it fits without

interfering with the drive belt.

17. The finished product should look something like this.


11/11

Install the finished charge harness into the car, making sure that

the end you modified on the RSX harness goes to the spot in the fuse

box closest to the headlight.
