The yellow silicone bungs should be held in by the back crimp, the stripped wire by the front 👍🏻
@50plusdad-uk8 ай бұрын
Absolutely, The reason I don't probably stems from the mid 90's Grand Cherokee, I was involved in upgrading the security for the uk market, one of the biggest problems we had was pins pushing out on the alarm door wiring due to the grommet being crimped too far down and stopping the terminal clicking home, admittedly not the hand made pre production wiring looms more the later factory made stuff, we used to pull them back up the cable and refit but this way solves that and the grommets don't fall out.

I found crimping the seal tended to end up with one of the lugs breaking off - so also don’t crimp the bung onto the terminal

Looks to be the most correct assembly I've seen so far. The rear (larger) crimp is meant to grip the insulation to help prevent pulling out and copper fractures caused by movement where the copper exits the the insulation. But then looking at the silicone bung, it looks deliberately made to take that rear end crimp, perhaps to ensure a seal at that point. Trouble with being a Gemini, I end up arguing with myself 🤣

I bought a packet of these from Amazon about 3 years ago. Finally a reason to use them the other day. Got the packet out and thought what the FXXXXK do I do with these? I ended up soldering and heat shrinking the cable onto my brand new bike's wiring, which I really didn't want to do. Sitting here a week later I thought, wonder if there's a post on KZbin? Of course there is! Thank you 1000% so easy to follow and concise. I'm off to pull all the panels off my Can-Am Spyder RTL & do the job I wanted to do in the first place. Bought the tools from you & sent a couple of coffers over to you too - Cheers matey!

@50plusdad-uk4 ай бұрын
You can do both ways, I don't grimp the bung so I get a better crimp and it clicks in the connector easier. Sometimes when you crimp the bung it can move so you still have to poke it down. The bung won't fall out if not crimped, have a try both ways and see which works best for you 👍

@maartenprojects2440 my bad you mean crimp tool, at a push you can fold it with some long nose pliers but it needs to be tight and small enough to fit in the connector it's a bit hit and miss, also worth soldering it as well so you know it's not gonna come off. It would be better to try and find a cheap crimp tool if you can.

@50plusdad-uk2 күн бұрын
Yes you should have a clip and a lock device, check that you don't have too much copper showing as this can sometimes block the gap that the lock drops into preventing it from securing the terminal also check the terminal has not been deformed and that it's going into the connector far enough to lock. Hopefully this helps or puts you on the right track 😁
@AllanO8085 ай бұрын
Can I use a standard wire crimp tool, or do I need the terminal crimp one?
@50plusdad-uk5 ай бұрын
I would use a terminal crimp if you can as the lugs need to be folded back over themselves each side forming an "n" to crimp into the copper, standard crimps will just flatten the lugs and not grip properly as they are designed to crush rather than form as specific shape.

Hi on the handle it says for plug spring terminal (non insulated) there are different dies (jaws) as long as the die is correct as in the picture these will fold and form the terminal, insulated terminal dies are flatter and just compress or crimp the terminal.

Once you get the hang of crimping the terminals they should be easy to assemble, things like the terminal being squashed or too much copper sticking out the front, both can stop the terminal clicking home. Make sure the terminal is the right way round and clicks home without forcing it.
