Let's call this a hypothetical problem as I appreciate the associated risk with some possible solutions:
A friend has a heated undergarment and the cable from the controller is disintegrating. I thought I'd post here to see if anyone had suggestions on how they might repair it. I'm not sure how the wire connects inside the vest yet, hopefully I'll get to see within the next day or two.
My thoughts:
It looks like 'water resistant cable' so repairing what's there is probably not much of an option. That would leave either splicing in a section w/ appropriate sealed connections (risks using sections of old jacket), or opening up both ends and replacing, which has potential to damage whatever seal is inside.
Any other ideas?
