JST Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 the warn socket on the end of the wander lead that plugs into the std warn solenoid pack. How do you get the thing apart? or can you buy replacement ends for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divster Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I don't think that you can buy the socket seperately. I think you'll have to fork out for a new controller James (£££ ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streaky Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 It's a sealed unit. Mine was also suspect....new one in Dubai was 80 quid! So...junior hacksaw came out and gingerly I cut around the tubular housing, sure enough the wire had come un-soldered from the pin. I re-soldered it together and then chamfered the edges around the two tubes. I then used a decent two-pack epoxy resin to bond them back together again. Jobs now a goodun. Once set I filed down the excess resin. Took about an hour. S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will_warne Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 The wanderleads also appear on ebay fairly often for not a lot of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumpy2268 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 the warn socket on the end of the wander lead that plugs into the std warn solenoid pack. How do you get the thing apart? or can you buy replacement ends for them? James, You can cut off the old plug from the remote lead and replace it with an IP67 plug / socket from the likes of RS components - part no. 246-8458 or 329-9102 & 329-9152 may do the job. These plugs and sockets are small enough to use on a flying lead. There are lots of other alternatives in the RS book, depending weather you want to replace the connection on the solenoid pack too ? regards, Adrian.

JST Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 thanks for your help guys, i think hacksaw option will be up first as the no cost option, if that fails i think Adrians suggestion will be the way fwd. thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
