Re: HELP! 430 miles from home...

So I pulled both my crankshaft sensors, and the wiring to them and the harness itself are extremely brittle. When removing the harness the wires actually cracked open exposing the wires. Also further back the insulation around the steel braiding has cracked off exposing the outer braid..... I would like to rewire the harness, but it looks like it is connected to a bunch of other stuff that branches off that line before going to the main harness pack, so I cant remove it. Im going to clean with brakekleen and wrap with electrical tape for now. The sensors themselves are covered in grease on the magnetic tip, so im going to clean that off and hopefully thats the trick. Crossing fingers since this is the last step before dealership and brokesville.
