Good wire connections are very important for best sound and long-term reliability. Here are two methods:

Splice

2.Wrap wires together

3.Fold wires over

4.Stretch electrical tape tightly over splice.

Professional Tip

Crimp Connections

Purchase crimp connectors and crimping tool. Connectors are color coded. This Jensen radio uses RED connectors (18-20 gauge wire).

1.Strip 1/4 inch (6mm) of insulation from both wires.

2.Insert into connector.

3.Crimp tightly.

You can make permanent splices (using butt connectors) or select connectors that can be removed and reinstalled.

Solder

Solder is the best way to connect wires, but it takes skill and practice. Splice the wires (as shown above). Before taping, heat the wires (not the solder). When the wires are hot enough, touch the solder to the splice. The solder will flow over the wires. Stretch electrical tape tightly over splice.

Important:

Be very careful when soldering wires in your car. Cover nearby carpeting and seats to prevent damage from hot solder.
