The document outlines the 12-step procedure for creating a wiring harness:
1. An electrical schematic or wiring diagram is created first.
2. Information is gathered to create a prototype harness drawing, including cable lengths, wire types, routing, and terminations.
3. A prototype drawing is created using the gathered information to allow building the harness.
4. The prototype harness undergoes design reviews before production orders are placed.

Harness Creation Procedure
The following document covers the procedure to be followed when creating a wiring harness.
1. Prior to creating a wiring harness, an electrical schematic diagram and/or wiring
diagram of the system will be created. 2. Following this, the information required to create a prototype harness drawing will be gathered. The method for gathering this information can be based upon using the Pro-E 3D cable routing software package or by physical routing and measurements made on the actual unit. Information to be gathered includes documenting the cable lengths, wire type and gauge, routing, terminations for each wire, requirements for fusing, diodes and relays, etc. 3. A prototype drawing, sufficient to allow building the harness, will be created using this information. This need not be a CAD drawing but must be sufficient for the harness assembly shop to build from. 4. Prior to ordering prototype harness assemblies, a design review of the harness will be held by the appropriate OmniQuip Electrical Design Engineering personnel and by the harness assembly manufacturing personnel. Performance of these reviews can be done independently, but the resulting changes must be discussed between the two groups. 5. Based upon the agreed upon design review changes, the prototype drawing will be modified to incorporate these changes. 6. The prototype drawing will then be reviewed to verify the agreed upon changes have been incorporated. 7. The quantity of prototype harnesses to order will be obtained and the harnesses are then ordered. 8. Prior to shipment of the prototype harnesses, the harness manufacturer will perform the following tests: 1) visual inspection per the drawing, 2) point to point electrical continuity, 3) diode polarity testing, and 4) relay functional operation testing. 9. After manufacturer testing is complete, the harnesses will be shipped to OmniQuip and on unit complete electrical testing performed. This testing will cover: 1) evaluating the harness routing and on unit fit, 2) verifying the proper electrical connections are being made, and 3) verifying correct operation of all machine functionality supported by the harness. 10. Changes to the prototype harness drawing will be made based on the testing performed and agreed to manufacturers recommendations and a final production harness drawing will then be created. 11. The OmniQuip Electrical Design Engineering personnel will perform a final review of the production harness prior to ECO submittal. 12. Upon approval, an ECO will then be submitted to release the harness drawing and supporting component documentation for production.
