[QUOTE="bicter, post: 467212, member: 1240"] No argument with me on soldering. Trained to NASA spec in soldering but that was long long ago. My comment was regarding the statement in the article Jaros posted where the author stated "crimp and solder" It should have been "either/or" not "and". My preference is to solder over crimp as it is too difficult to get the correct matching of tool, cable and crimp pin for small quantities. Crimps do have their place in wiring provided they have been done correctly. With regard to crimps in salt environment, I think that if a crimped DC connection is having problems within a salt environment, every connector used in that car is going to have the same issue... or am I missing something?
