I got a plug and the parts dealer put it in my old starter, the parts dealer couldn't get the new cable out and told me to put the starter in with it. I told him that was the old one. Lol, he had to get it out and struggled, promising a replacement if it broke. I need to modify this stuff, but on the other hand, it's a great anti theft device, nobody can start the vehicle if the cable keeps coming lose!

@sloth-worxАй бұрын
Sure thing, I haven’t had any issues with this repair. I have done it to 5 or 6 other trucks at this time all with no problems. It’s a solid repair. There is a replacement plug and pigtail available if you want to retain that feature. A person commented a while back about unpinning the old plug and installing the new plug. I have stuck with the ring terminal. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@ I like your hack better I just need to grow the courage to cut the wire that’s all I’ll probably do it today
@sloth-worxАй бұрын
It’s super easy to do with the starter out of the way. Just cut as close to the plug as possible I actually cut through a bit of the plug and a good solid crimp. You will be good to go.

You don't need to splice in a new connector if you break the red clip. The plastic parts of the connector easily disassemble. Buy a new connector pigtail and pry out the gray core with a small screw driver or steak knife from the side. Next push two small paper clip pins into the two small holes on each side of the metal connector until they bottom out. Now slide the plastic connector off the metal crimped wire connector. Repete with the broken one then simply slide the new connector then the gray core onto the existing metal crimped connector.

@sloth-worx2 ай бұрын
Sorry for the delay. I usually keep them in the salt for 24 to 36 hours, then lay out to dry. time for drying will vary depending on the humidity in your location. It’s very important to not dry them out too much.

What rod is that with you and the bull red? I don't see many long baitcaster rods without way too much spine. I want a long one 10'+ of medium capacity (1-5oz rated) and I've had no luck finding such. It seems they have plenty down under and also across the pond. USA? not so much unless you go custom and I checked on blanks--higher than I expected! Is that a Penn?

@sloth-worx7 ай бұрын
Thanks. Use a little flathead screwdriver and gently pry it back towards the wire. It shouldn’t have to be taken completely out but it happens sometimes. Dirt, dust and brittle plastic sometimes makes it impossible unfortunately. If you want to get a clear look at how it works check out the plug on your MAF sensor it operates the same way and is very easy to see.

where is the shift switch on a 2008 mercury optimax 115
@sloth-worx7 ай бұрын
It should be attached to the bracket the shift cable slides in. Looking at an old parts diagram it appears that the wires that connect it to the main wire harness may use bullet connections instead of a single plug. They can be hard to see, if you can find the wire they will lead you to it. There is always a chance someone removed an and just connected the wires together. Hope this helps you out. Good luck

It so, it will free up space in my freezer for more catfish nuggets instead of storing frozen bait. 😉

Check that the switch still operates smoothly by hand after it’s installed. If the screws are too tight or some kind of imperfection in the mounting surface may jam up the new switch.
