    soldering leads for R/R

    I want you all to know that bypassing the crappy modular plug for the R/R and soldering the thing in place is amazing.

    I went from hot melting leads to a cold non-resistant connection.

    I had a flucuation in my output and now it is gone completely.
    Solder that thing in its not like its a pair of underwear.
    You will be pleasantly surprised.

    I don't think soldering is the main thing, it's more important to bypass the old and typically resistance laden factory wiring and hook everything up directly (between stator and R/R) with low resistance connectors.

      None of my GS's have modular plugs on the R/R, but I have also had good success with soldering R/R leads. It is my prefferred connection from the Stator and also the positive out of the R/R, in particular.

        I soldered my Stator Wires Directly to my electrosport R/R instead of going through the old harness wires... is this what you guys are talking about?
