How to Solder Motor Wires… so they last
Steps:
- Cut wires for the length you require, I usually cut a little longer because you can always go shorter.
- Strip wires (about 1/2″)
- Tin wires, apply solder to the bare wire ends
- Solder wires to the motors using either a J hook method or just straight through (I would go straight so they’re easier to replace)
- Cover with heat shrink tubing. Go with the first size that fits over your wire, if that isn’t big enough to go over the connection as well then apply the first size to your wires, then encase the connection and the first layer of heat shrink with the next biggest size.
