Speedometer Sensor Wire Harness

This post may come under the category of TMI (too much information). There are many tricks to wiring and differing opinions about what is the best technique. For what it is worth, the following is how we made the wire harness for the speed sensor. Keeping in mind it is in an exposed location and will be subjected to a lot of abuse, we thought a bit of extra care was warranted.

Hopefully the pictures will tell the story without further comment, other than to note that a quarter inch diameter length of Painless Powerbraid Wire Wrap, #70901, was used. It was secured at each end with a two inch length of heat shrinkable tubing.

All connections were soldered. The connections were staggered. Each was separately covered with heat shrink tubing and then all three were covered with another piece of heat shrink.
