ADDITION OF AUX ELECT. EQUIP. CONNECTIVE PARTS AVAILABLE

The use of electronics on today's vehicles require that both power and ground connections for add/on (auxiliary) electrical equipment (mobile radios, light bars, etc.) be made at the battery.

Parts are now available to make these connections while maintaining the corrosion resistance and electrical integrity designed into the Delco side terminal battery.

The Side Terminal Adaptor Package 1846855, when combined with the longer battery bolt (P/N 12004188) and spacer (P/N 12004189) will provide the corrosion resistant connection.

We recommend all your technicians involved in add/on (auxiliary) electrical equipment installations follow this simple procedure.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
