Does anyone know how I can fix this? The wire has been pulled out of the plug after it slipped of the wheel mount. If it’s a case of buying the plug and crimp tool where would I get such a thing?





Thanks.

Looks like an offset RJ12 connector to me.

You're right, I didn't clock the offset.
Cheers guys.

Yeah forgot to mention it was offset.

I assume the same crimping tool will work with this one too?

No, most won't be wide enough, look here for some ones whos modified theirs: http://www.philohome.com/crimp/crimp.htm

I am looking for one, but they are all mental expensive.

Can you confirm if the pin layout is the same either end? It might be easier to find a made up cable already.
Cheers looks like I will be making my own as per those instructions.

Without taking the pedals apart I can only get one end.



Fortunately the colours are in the plug too so getting the corresponding pins should be easy



I’m just kicking myself as I normally unplug everything, but this lapse has caused some grief.
