Tip on depinning push the wire in, unlock then pull it this method always works for me.

@charlieturner1293 4 жыл бұрын

Should just de pin that plug so much quicker and easier

@mason8725 4 жыл бұрын

Top tip, when you solder, heat the wire with the iron from underneath and feed the solder in from the top in to the wire, you shouldn't cover your iron in solder. Flux paste on the wires also for a top job.

I liked the video, but from what ive seen professional race cars do, is that they simplify the harness as much as possible, and make it as easy as possible to remove, that way during a race, if theres a small fire, or fender bender they can swap the harness in under 5 minutes to keep racing

@ericxiong6582 3 жыл бұрын

De-pin the wires would have been much better. As for your soldering skills...FAIL. We all know you need to cover the connections with heatshrink tubing instead of just electrical tape. At least use a rubber grommet

@compa_choo Жыл бұрын

Heat shrink is just for a cleaner look. Unless it has the adhesive to make the connection water proof heat shrink will offer no extra benefit compared to e tape besides aesthetics. And we know 90% of enthusiast are gonna save money and purchase regular heat shrink

If your not adding heat shrink wrap on the cables u should cut your positive connection slightly off from others incase tape peals or shifts with weather

The wire tuck routing was really cool but please learn how to solder before you cut the harnesses. You never cut a harness like that. Cut the wires at different lengths so they are not in one huge ball.

Cringe at the re wiring. This is how cwr fires start. Not a safe method at all. It would be better to use de pin . Or use a new connector block if you have to cut the wires.

You need to improve your soldering skills. Overlap the wires, one over another and then solder. Cover with heatshrink tubing and then electrical tape/wire loom.
