How to Solder connections on a CPE

[Midias]

I took apart the glove box and found one of the clip on connectors had nearly eaten through the wire . So I decided to fix them all the correct and suggested way by CPE. So if you are in my boat or want to prevent this I took some pics of how to easily solder all CPE connections. While still making it easy to remove and not permanently change anything so it is easy to go back to stock.

*************************************************************
Soldering iron and solder
Heat shrink wrap assorted sizes
Heat source
female spade lugs blue and red
Wire strippers and cutters.

After removing ONE connector ONLY one you don't want 6 wires with no place to connect

Start by striping the wires and twisting them together.


Then slip a spade female connector over it and solder it on NOT CRIMP solder it.



Next slip heat shrink tubing over it and apply heat. I used a small lighter.



Now just slip in the CPE connector



Here all finished



and the black box
