Route the longer blue and black wires to the SSAM X10 connector. Route the shorter blue and black wires
to the SSAM X2 connector. Figure 16 shows the location of the SSAM X10 and X2 connectors.

NOTE: It is critical that the two longer wires that originate at relay 2 get terminated at the SSAM X10 connector
and the shorter wires that originate at relay 1 get terminated at the SSAM X2 connector.
9.

Remove the wire from pin 1 of the SSAM X10 connector and replace it with the longer black wire. Splice
the wire removed from pin 1 of the SSAM X10 connector to the longer blue wire.

NOTE: Although the XMCs are not labeled, the normal configuration is XMC1 on top and XMC2 directly below it. However, sometimes they can be switched around. In order to identify, disconnect one of the XMCs
and use DiagnosticLink to see which XMC still connects. It will be necessary to temporarily reconnect the
batteries and then disconnect them again when done verifying which XMC is XMC2 using DiagnosticLink.
13.2 Use a small flat screwdriver to gently push the lock in so the latch can rotate, and disconnect the X1
connector from XMC2. Rotate the latch all the way to the left-hand side and gently pull the X1 connector out. See Fig. 42 and Fig. 43.
