Zusammenfassung:A valve assembly includes a valve body, a valve element, a valve actuator, a main connector port, and a dummy connector port. The main connector port is coupled to the valve body and is electrically coupled to the valve actuator. The main connector is also adapted to mechanically and electrically mate to an electrical harness. The dummy connector port is coupled to the valve body and is disposed proximate the main connector port. The dummy connector port is electrically isolated from the valve actuator and is adapted to at least mechanically mate to the electrical harness in a manner that is at least substantially identical to the manner in which the electrical connector mechanically mates to the main connector port.
