Use tape

The luggage is important if you'll be using it to camp or just haul back a few necessities from the mart, otherwise just part with it. It doesn't trouble me with the looks, but it will be in the way if you're just using the bike for sport or the occasional jaunt about town.

Now put the. Clamp over the connector dummy

That did quiet it done a lot!

😂 nice, my 2007 FZ6 still sits in the garage since 2009… Currently contemplating a restoration if within reason at the original dealership Ive bought it from

Hey, if you remember in the future, you wanna use the switch on your power probe,before you touch the wire itself. All the arcing will occur at the probe, instead of the switch. I've got an og 15yr old power probe 1 or 2, and it's never stopped working... just a suggestion bro.

This is what copper tape is for. You strip the wire, wrap it tight with a layer of copper tape and slide it in. If you’ve ever hooked up a temporary generator with the high flex DLO Cable this is the by far the best way to

Now how would i wire up a 2 way rocker switch to operate it🧐🧐

Yeah, I’d use a zip tie

Did you bring a lawsuit you have died on the road buddy.

This video is not truthful because the tierod is from the driver side wheel that he shows that out of the hole in center makes the vehicle not drivable so it couldn't been left from dealer that way

As a Master Electrician. If you find your wire is fraying out like in this video. Grab a TY-WRAP, put it around you wire (Snug, Not cranked down). Slide it up. No need for a hose clamp. Start your connector on the wire, then grab your side cutters. Cut off the ty wrap and slide your connector on all the way. Now crimp it and heat shrink. Done!

Zip tie

FLAWLESS VICTORY ELECTRICIAN WINS

Option. 2 when you don't have to buy anything.Additional is you do a two steps stripping you strip Half of the total strip length. Remove as normal. Then you cut for the second strip for the rest of the strip length, break the plastic so you can get it to move forward. Bring it to where the about a 16th from the end slip on your connector push down. Remove the rest of the insulation and push the rest of it away down With the connector easy psy lemon squeezing , no additional expense.

Shame them on Facebook

Yea there’s no misunderstanding. You set this up this way. Glad to help with the hit

How do you do that without the fancy tool

Dealers aren't gonna start inspecting everything. Jeez. Do it yourself anyway...

I concur brother.

“Do it yourself and save”

Looks like they heated the old one up with a torch n cut holes in your truck

Zip tie faster

just spent four hours flushing my coolant and power steering, oil/filter change... tire pressure. @$200/hr for half assed quality at the dealership... I'll pass

Wrapping the end with copper foil works really well also. I keep some from medium voltage cables. Get the crimp lug started, then pull the foil out. Sorta like using a shoe horn.

I plan to run the fans to a switch in the cab and have them on all the time (rock crawler) do I gotta worry about the switch you had trouble with or just say screw it?

Well if they left it like that at the dealership you wouldn't have been able to drive it home.

I’ve always done the same thing but with a zip tie, just snip it once you have the ferrule over the end.

Could’ve just used the insulation that you cut off

What a wast of tome you could just use the cable insulation to do the same thing

Somehow I never have a problem doing that though

The clamp works. I’ve also had good luck twisting the wires so they are nearly perfectly round. Then twist the lug the same direction but take your time just ease it on.

You f-ed up after stripping the wire, just strip the insulation and dont twist the copper. After twisting its not fitting like showed, just keep it straight after cutting and it will fit right into the connector. Id only use this kind of method when a wire is not long enough to cut the end.

Yep. Do it yourself where possible. When I do stuff myself I know it's been done, amd done properly. And if it goes wrong (which it doesn't) it's my own fault.

Thank you !! Looked everywhere on a diy video for this !!

Whoa!!! Thats bad

Use a zip tie. Fast, easy and you probably have one.

I just cut some of the excess useless wire and shove it on. The wrap a bunch of electrical tape to hold it on and bolt the connection down.

I always said that, to many backyard hillbillies calling 📞 themselves macantics

Check yourself fix..it your self

Zip tie

Mortal combat!

Or! You cut a small ring from the wire jacket and push it up to the end and now you don't have to carry around a bunch of useless junk

Great video. I have a non-working compass/temp unit as well. The caps look good (I am going to replace all of them anyway), but both of the micro switches are shot. I buy parts from DigiKey but since both switch actuators are frozen, I can't determine the correct replacement. What is the format of the switches that you put on your board (SPST, SPDT, ON/OFF, etc). Thanking you, in advance, for any help you can provide regarding the switches. The SPST switches that control the overhead console lights are available on DigiKey by the same manufacturer as the originals but set up for board mounting. They can be used, since the mounting legs come out the end that the wires do on the original switch. Just solder a wire to each leg and you have a working ON/OFF switch.

I use small thin copper sheets, wrap them around the wire before putting the lug on

That works but I found in doing car audio and dealing with 1/0, 2/0 and 3/0 that a zip tie is faster

Cutting around the insulation at the right depth, then again a quarter inch closer to the end. Remove the wide piece and slide the narrow one near the end of the wire. Use it to hold the wire while sliding the ferrule into place. Cut the small piece and finish up.

Reverse engineering a carburetor.

After my warranty expired I started watching mechanics work on cars and I have the confidence that I work on anything but a transmission and rebuild an engine and some ac work because of the tools needed.

do your own work if you know what your doing. its far more dangerous for the customer to do their own work. half of them dont know how to change a tire or what a transfer case is. personal opinion, i love chrisfix, yet if u need to watch him before doing the service take it to a professional.
