+ Battery Lead Wire Problem

[Arctic 4x4]

My positive battery wire has a gash in it... so the cable that was originally nice and thick is now only partially connected still... so there is a bottle neck for the electricity to flow through. Probably why turning on my lights, fan, etc, make my battery gauge jump down.

Question is, how can I replace this cable? Seems it goes from the + battery post and disapears into the wiring harness somewhere. Does the other end bolt down somewhere? Is there a cable I can go buy to replace this with?

Thanks.

Oh, and dont worry about my URGENT thread I guess. Didnt get any replies, and it ended up driving to work OK. Still need to properly set the timing though.

Your positive battery cable conects to the starter (atleast it does on my truck) and can be replaced, just get a new one and follow it from the battery to the other end and unbolt it and install the new one in its place.

and to add to that i would just get some ends and make it myself because chances are that they want a arm and leg for the specific cable and is not neccesary i upgraded all mine 4 gauge monster cable then slitloom and zip ties its better than new.

I have a replacement cable... just need to find the starter. It must be hidden down in there somewhere, cuz I never fan locate it when looking in from the top, through the wheel well, or looking up from just behind the wheel.

But my truck starts, so I know it's in there somewhere!!
