Basically, where I live the past week along with the snow its been really cold at night (up to -10). Last year my 12V became frozen so took it out a couple of times and kept it inside overnight. As you knkow, the battery is in the back in a very tight space that you kinda have to contort the battery out to remove it. Well, I've been removing the battery every night the past week and finally it came back to bite me because the positive-cable (+) going into the little white connector twisted and snapped. I guess my options are to trim the positive cable and then figure out a way to reattach it. However before I start on this I'd like to know if there is any workaround. Maybe connect another cable to the end of the existing broken cable or something else. there isn't much room to work with with as the cable is pretty short already. Thanks.
Don't know about workarounds this is the one that plugs into the black plastic the white plug that goes into the black plastic on positive block ? I should be able to send you that whole piece . Just wrecked a great car a few weeks ago everything's pristine in it . If your wire is good what I send ya you can just pop insert out of white plug insert yours plug in !
I'm thinking about not having the 12V battery sink down into that nook but rather sit on top of trunk compartment tbh. toyota put the battery in a very odd place and yes I understand I am overreacting re: a fix because the real fault is that I've taken it out dozens of times (unlike a normal person) and it finally broke.
problem with this solution is there is very little stretch left on positive cable. thats why I was thinking maybe there is a workaround. I think i might have to give your suggestion at least a shot and then eventually replace the cable/housing outright.
DANG! it looks like this is the complete wiring harness. the other end doesn't just clip onto something. looks like I have to figure out a workaround.
