Wiring Gurus needed
Hey All,
I'm in the middle of repairing my FAB9 COP wiring harness and have run into this snag. It's probably a very simple solution but I've never seen this type of connector point before.
It looks like a crimp connector but when I stick the open wire in, it doesn't go past the plastic bit.
So for the gurus out there, I've attached a pic. How do I stick the wire in!?

Jesus ******* christ, do you require assistance to install underwear? You've never had to deal with a shaft too large for the hole? Pity...
Use the right gauge butt splices or get some lube and be all gay with it. Or just get the right size ****, that'd probably be best.

I only ask because I'm not familiar with wiring.
Don't know why the question pissed you off.

Now saying all this, I solder almost everything in my car and have not had issues.

Tyco (also called TE Connectivity/Amp) make some "proper" (read brazed seam with serrated mating area) terminals.
Part numbers 34130,34137,34138 and 34318 in increasing sizes, which support inline or butt terminations with any old crimper.
Digikey and others carry them.
YMMV, but soldering will typically also work, if you properly support the wire. I had a particularly difficult to diagnose issue which turned out to be
a solder failure, so now I always go solderless.
