(A) Grommet
(B) P Clip
Thread the remaining harness back out through the cut out in the face of 550-2451 Plate As (4). Reuse grommet (A) to secure the harness in the cut out in plate assembly (4).
Install new 550-2451 Plate As (4) onto the HVAC unit using the existing hardware retained earlier.
Reinstall "P" clips (B) removed prior to secure the existing harness.
