nipper Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 The wires on my 05 Outback going from the body to the liftgate are broken, some have failed. What is the best way to attack this. Do I just use but connectors to spllce them as they sit, or do I splice in some longer wire to remove the strain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yblocker Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I had this same thing happen to our "06. I spliced in more wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbhrps Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I agree! Splice in more wire and solder the connections and cover with shrink tubing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 Yup that seems to be the fix. the replacement harness is not new or improved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Cut out those sections about 4" back from the breaks. Find some high quality wire (silicone jacketed wire is super flexible) and splice in new stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
