Super User skunked_again Posted August 29, 2020 Super User Posted August 29, 2020 The power supply to my 1197 is so loose trolling over wake will dislodge the wire. Thoughts? Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted August 29, 2020 Super User Posted August 29, 2020 Could you firm up the connection by wrapping it with teflon tape? Quote
Guitarfish Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 Get a piece of plastic wedge and stick it in there along side, after plugging it in. Quote
Herbert Lorenzo Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 A touch of glue , wedge , or good old reliable duct tape , Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted August 31, 2020 Super User Posted August 31, 2020 I wouldn’t use glue. Quote
FordsnFishin Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 19 hours ago, Jig Man said: I wouldn’t use glue. Yeah not glue, jb weld would be way better. But really, can you throw a wrap of electrical tape around it that it doesn't interfere with the connection but makes it more snug? Quote
mcipinkie Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 You need to take a needle nose and reach in the male connector and bend one of wires very slightly to give it some friction in the female side. Bend them both if you want. Be delicate. This ain't a job for club hands, but I've done it often. It should help hold the connection together and improve the electrical connectivity. You could screw a wire clip to the mount to keep the wire from backing out. Looks like you have plenty of holes. Quote
