How To Solder Radio Wiring Harness

Solder the wires accordingly to these pins ensuring that the pins dont touch each other in the process.

How to solder radio wiring harness. These differentials in brittleness create areas where vibration can lead to breaks in the wire. The location of splices shall be staggered to minimize the increase in profile to the harness. Simple tutorial on the best way to connect the wires for a custom Automotive Radio.

Aftermarket radio wiring with stock SVT sub and amp. If you look at the back of the plug where the wires go into the plug body there will be a black piece of rubber with all the holes in it for the wires. This can be achieved by insulating each connection with a piece of heat shrink.

Some inexpensive tools and best practice tips is all you need for a solid. Due to the high level of vibration found in automotive applications a proper solder joint it less ideal than a proper crimp joint. My question now is how to to the Y-splice on the wires.

If it works fine tuck all the wiring. Final assembly profile shall not impact form fit or function. Cable tieslacing shall be installed at both ends of a splice or solder sleeve but placement shall not violate stress relief requirements.

I decided to make a small how-to for you guys. These can be obtained from electrical stores. Also high temperatures on top of the engine makes solder brittle.
