Hi,
I have determined using ChatGPT that my battery positive auxiliary cable is "burnt" out at the battery end. It runs from the positive terminal fusable link nut to the fuse box and intermittently becomes disconnected causing no power at all to the vehicle. By touching it, the car comes to life. It is a 2015 Diesel Evoque Convertible and I think it has been dodgy for awhile as I sometimes get sensor faults and all sorts of flashing when driving and after the auto start/stop kicks in. I thought it was the battery, but it is definitely the cable.
My question is, can I just "repair" it with either a new cable of same specs, and/or re-crimp the burnt end?
I am looking at a fair bit of $$ if I buy the OEM cable LR067369, but it just looks like a big red multi-strand 10mm diameter cable with two crimps.
Appreciate any advice or other experiences of this nature.
Cheers,
Hodgii
