This is the second time I have seen a cable end fail like this I have been wrenching for 45 years... It had a bad connection inside the crimp...
I stopped by a parts store BS'N with the owner a guy comes in looking for a cable they did not have a cable and did not want to make one up for him there shop is not open on Saturdays. His cable looked good to me till he turned it over and I seen where it was burning thru :shock: I ask the owner to sell him the parts I would make the cable up for him.
He came to the shop I crimped him up a nice new cable... Before Y'all crimp haters blow a gasket this is a extremely rare failure most all crimp connections will live as long are longer than a solder connection...
I would wager this crimp is 35/40 years old a poor crimp at that on a old ford tractor... I wounder why they would tie the end of the copper strands with a steel wire...
one more pix were the cable enter the clamp. I am a little fudgie I guess I don't install the cable insulator inside the crimp that's what hear shrink tub'B is for...
