fantastic handbrake though eh !

How to bodge the cam or crank wire :cool: Pictures supplied, but the basics are; Join the two smaller wires (black and yellow), in the normal way then tape them up. Wrap the whole section in tin foil and then tape that up. Squeeze it all back inside the rubber housing... and then...

Hello again. . After noticing the issue with the damaged wiring loom that runs from the ECU, i have managed to repair all but one of them. . It's a weird one, as it's a black wire, that is lined with what appears to be silver foil. . Inside said foil, is more wire, and inside that loose...
