2. Trim the ends of both of the cables to be joined as
shown. Note that if either cable has solder on the
cables this section should be cut off so that the bare
wires are exposed.
3. Ensure that the cables to be joined are clean and dry
in the area around the proposed joint. If the cable
isn't clean, it may be possible to trim the cable until
a clean area is reached. Otherwise, the cable can be
lightly rubbed with sandpaper to remove concrete
residues etc.

4. Slide the heat-shrink tube onto the longest cable
and well away from the joint. This tube has to be
kept clear of the solder splices when they are being
heated. See Figure 7.
5. Fit one of the solder splices to each of the two wires
of the old cable. See Figure 8.
Figure 8. Fit Solder Splice to Wire Ends
6. Slide the wires from the new cable into the solder
splices and position each splice so that the silver
coloured solder ball is positioned over where the two
(2) wires join. See Figure 9.
Figure 9. Proper and Improper Solder Ball Positions
7. Using a heat gun on Medium to High heat, gently
heat the centre of the solder splices until the solder
ball melts and runs into the wire. Take care to only
heat around the solder ball as excess heat can
damage the cable. Check that the red seals next to
the solder balls have also melted. See Figure 10.

8. Slide the heat-shrink tube over the joint, ensuring
that the heat-shrink tube covers each end of the joint
evenly and start to heat the tubing from the centre
outwards. Continue to heat the centre until the tube
starts to decrease in size.
9. Continue heating the heat-shrink tube towards the
ends but be CAREFUL not to heat the cables directly
as they can be DAMAGED. See Figure 11.

10. Once the heat-shrink tube has shrunk completely the
glue from inside of it should be visible on the ends.
See Figure 12.

11. Leave the completed joint to COOL for five (5)
minutes to ensure that the glue seal isn't damaged.
Once cooled, momentarily power the light to confirm
that the connection is sound.
