Date: Dec-2014
Subject:
J-35616-64B Terminal Test Probe / Replacement Terminal / Terminated Lead
Models:
2005-2015 GM Passenger Cars and Trucks
This PI was superseded to update Model Years and terminated lead information. Please discard PIT5074G.
The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.
When diagnosing an intermittent electrical concern, terminal tension is one of the main culprits, especially when working with very small terminals. More and
more modules and inline connectors are using small .64 series terminals and when checking terminal tension it is important to use the correct test probe. The
J-35616-64B is the latest test probe released for checking tension or probing the .64 series terminals. See pic below.
Note: Always refer to the Connector End View in Service Information for the latest information on determining the correct test probe to use.
If the terminal end of the J-35616-64B is bent, damaged, worn or broken it should not be used and a replacement test probe or terminal should be obtained from
GM Tools at 1-800-468-6657. The test probe terminal has been released in the terminal repair kit (J-38125-620H) located in Lear Tray 7 part number 963716-2,
shown below (Note: When calling Kent-Moore to order terminal 963716-2, the actual part number is 963716-2PKG since they are only sold as a pack). This
terminal may also be used to make jumper wires; example: to jumper the High Speed LAN circuits together in order to bypass a module for testing only. Use
crimping tool J-38125-641 and jaw "H" for 22ga wire, "J" for 20 ga wire, or "K" for 18 ga.
If you cannot locate the Terminals in your terminal kit "Tray 7," your kit is not up to date, and Kent tools will need to be contacted so your kit can be updated.
Another option is to order the .64 test probe terminal already connected to a lead/wire called a terminated lead. The GM part number is 13505346, which can be
ordered through your normal GM CCA parts channel. There are 5 terminated leads in a package, shown below. With the addition of this new terminated lead,
there are now 3 different options for obtaining the proper .64 test probe/terminal:
1.
64 Test Probe - J-35616-64B (ordered from GM Tools at 1-800-468-6657)
2.
64 Replacement Terminal - Lear Tray 7 part number 963716-2 (ordered from GM Tools at 1-800-468- 6657)
3.
64 Terminated Lead - GM part number 13505346 (ordered from GM CCA parts)

GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform these 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 your GM dealer for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
