5. Replace any pinched wires. Remove the section of wiring that is pinched, using wire clippers. You may need to unbolt some intake components if the wiring is inaccessible.
6. Remove a 1/2-inch section of protective coating off the wire you cut, on each side of the wire, using the wire strippers.
7. Connect the two exposed wires together with wire connectors. Wire connectors work by placing exposed wire into a small, metal, hollow tube that can be crimped, or squeezed together, to make a permanent connection. You insert the wire into each side of the connector. You may need to use extra wiring to increase the length of the section of wiring you are trying to join together; use wiring connectors in this case.
