reattaone Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I have to replace the connector behind the headlight switch. When I do this is it going to be just as good to use butt connectors when I splice all the wires instead of soldering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest campolojr Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I would solder it just takes time if you really want to do a quick solder pick up a cold heat soldering iron from radio shack or sears I believe. They have worked well for me when doing wiring. I have had many shorts and all of a sudden stop working with splicing things so I stick to soldering and shrink wrap but thats me hope my info helps.

Take a few minutes to do it the right way.....solder and shrink wrap 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Vega Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I second the solder/shrink tubing method. Butt connectors are a temp fix at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
