Equinox 6" Coil Connector Repair...Update,Fixed!

Recommended Posts

I just checked mine and it's 8 pin. 7 outer and 1 in the middle.

 Be careful to note where the indexing notch is .

We used to call these connectors DIN in my world.

There's probably a 4 or 5 pin on your old CB mic.

If I had a nickel for every time I forgot to put a connector cover or some heat shrink on before starting to solder..........I wouldn't care about gold ! LOL I started my tron life at 12yo !

Liquid tape is "the balls" as one of my friends used to say.

(Use a little around the ends of the heat shrink unless it's the kind that has sealer inside to add a bit more waterproofing , ).  

 

OH and ML not wanting to fix that connector  probably something about waterproofing  ? Or doubts of consumer doing the soldering.

 Thanks Fred, funny enough I just bought  a nice padded case for the back of the truck to carry the detector(S) in..to protect them!  I think it was just the bouncing around on the back roads that did it....

Mine got "squelched" when I was working a hole that had some roots running through it...my digging implement slipped off a root with energy, and slapped down on the connector...just busted it right off...looked exactly like the picture in this thread.

It happened so fast...lesson learned. Lay that detector AWAY from the action.
