HEAT-SHRINK BUTT SPLICES from Aircraft Spruce

Or solder and this.

THIN WALL HEAT-SHRINKABLE TUBING BLACK from Aircraft Spruce
The metal wire connections come out of the old and go into the new. No splicing required.

If you missed it. here is the how to do the work.

The reason for the ultrasonic cleaner is you could also
drop all of the top section in and then it would be very
clean and take longer to build up. That is the thought anyway.

Even better . Guess I didn't look close enough, thought it was a connector with a pigtail.

ok enough is enough what the heck is prefetching? This post says it has 2 pages I want to look at the second page but all I get is that prefetch is not allowed due to privacy issues.
This is the only forum I belong to that I get that message.

wire terminal

Never mind must have been a glitch, but that glitch seems to happen often.
One thing in the instructions that bothers me is first it says not to splice, ok no problem.

Now most of the terminal ends have a barb that locks them in place if you break that barb the terminal is useless and has to be replaced as it will no longer lock in and will back out.

Step 2 in the instructions say to bend or break the locking tab. Does this mean the lock tab is part of the connector now and no longer on the wire terminal?

Seems to me like alliant needs to add a replacement pig tail as well.

The tab it's talking about breaking is on the inside of the connector. You can break the tab on the original connector (broke one) if you don't have an extractor tool. It won't matter if you break the tab on the connector as you won't be reusing it anyways (since your replacing it with the new one.

Thanks that addresses my concern quite well.
Actually Performance has a good idea.

You may have to call Alliant Power it is not listed in their catalog as of 2 weeks ago.
I had just downloaded their online catalog and it was not listed a new product from the looks of it. Yahiko in his first post had a link to it.
