Parts specialist febi has expanded its offering of Wiring Harness Repair Kits to allow garages to complete more cost effective wiring repairs, without the need to completely replace the harness.

Repeated use of the doors and tailgate causes mechanical stress on the wiring looms located between them and the vehicle body. The PVC wiring isolation loses its flexibility over time, and if the wiring harness is exposed can lead to fracture or deformation. A break in the wiring can then lead to an open or short circuit of the wiring loom. This can have an impact on the connection to switches and actuators in the door or tailgate meaning that window regulator motors, rear window wiper, door mirrors and many other central electrical components will not function.

When it comes to correcting this problem, technicians often find that only the complete wiring harness is available from the vehicle manufacturer, so even if only one part of the cable is broken, the entire wiring harness has to be replaced.

A more convenient and economical repair solution is available in the form of febi Car wiring harness repair kits. These are high quality German manufactured kits that are both competitively priced and can be major time savers as only the damaged section is repaired.  

The febi kit range includes over 115 references available for many different applications. These kits are available for the door, rear door, tailgate, tailgate lock, headlamp, with one solution for one model, covering all model variants.

The kit utilise silicon isolation in their construction which is more resistant to thermal stress and stays more flexible at any temperature than the PVC used in most OE wiring. This flexibility helps to prevent further cable breaks. Braids of the wires are tinned, for longevity and corrosion protection and are extra fine-wired making them more flexible.

All required components for the repair are included in each kit.
