RB300 wire snapped...soldering question

Posted by Pappas3278 (A) on September 28, 2015 at 18:38:04

My RB300 "cork" popped out at the base of the arm during transit recently and one of the wires snapped from it's solder joint. In my attempt to solder it back on, how does one prep that wire?

Does the plastic need to be stripped back to expose the wire? I hope not 'cause that wire is damn thin. I'm hoping I can just float the solder and bond that wire with the plastic as it is.

Need a little help here. :-( Thanks.
