Some wires have enamel that blocks the ability to solder them.
This video shows 1 method for how to easily remove the enamel.
*warning fumes are toxic take necessary steps to protect your self.
It appears that the wires are not copper at all but rather the enamel makes them appear like copper.

Had to double check that this wasn't on a certain 1st day of a month that comes 4th in the year..... and, appears not to be- I encounter this issue so much- mainly due to my stupiditty of not learning my lessen of taking alazy way to strip more wire if i'd not done enough, being; using the soldering iron to melt the plastic/ whattever coating, which spreads it on the wire in a melted fashion....most times, not allowing the solder to do it's thing...i thought it'd been my solderring skills dimminishing- since most all times i can solder no prb. But, today yoou've blessed me with this knowledge and understandig of what needs done.... many thanks!

It's not a corrosion measure, it's copper magnet wire, you gotta insulate it otherwise the coil just shorts itself out and you don't get turns and therefore no magnetic flux amplification.

I tried this but it leaves a black residue. It still needs a secondary cleaning with something else. I’m still on the mission to get them properly cleaned. But the aspirin does help. 👍

Yep you have to clean and scrape but the aspirin does 90% of the work

So i have this same issue dam near same motor(1340 5892) and my motor gets unusually hot cause I could only get the solder to stick to some of the wire and then wrapped it with electric tape cause it never got the wires that hot. But then after i did the wire extension one wire separated from the heat. I was thinking of using a tiny wire wheel to slap it and remove the coating.

Yep you need a clean solid connection. Mechanical scraping off or chemical like I had shown. Even with the chemical process I still had to scrape some with a flat razor blade.

I had to repeat the process several times and scrape some residue off after. Overall it did work. Absolutely wear a respirator and have a well ventilated area!!!

i'm working with similar scenario, i have a "high temp" thermistor, i believe it's a pt100 of some sort, but only has one single wire for each of the leads, and i've attempted to attach solder to the wire without any luck. i consider myself proficient with soldering, so i'm little confused as to why my solder is not sticking to the wire. if you stick a meter to your wire (the ones with the enamel coating) to do a continuity test would your meter still report continuty or does the enamel coating prevent continuity? i ask because the single wire i'm working with reports continuity but i'll be damned if i can get some solder to stick to it.

For motor windings they cross and overlap so they cannot conduct with each other. The enamel isolates them. I'd recommend the scraping method and see if you can get a small area to accept the solder with some flux.
