battery connector

[ste77_2008]

hi basically i need to remove a connector from a hump pack and put it onto a battery for the marder. but how can i remove the connector without cutting the wire.

 

[frumpy]

If it's a Tamiya style connector you have to cut the wire

yea i think the only way is to cut it mate, maplin should sell a new connector tho,,

it isn`t a tamiya connector it is the standard type from a hump pack. so maybe just solder them together by the wires and put insulation tape on to waterproof it.

Get some heat shrink tubing. You should be able to pick some up from your local motor store, electrical supplier or halfords or somewhere like that will prob do it. Make sure you slip it over the wires before you solder them together
