Rather than using solder and heatshrink, you might want to use Raychem solder splices. They are a bit more expensive, but if you want it done right, that is the way to go. The solder sleeve is a plastic "tube" with a ring of solder in the middle of it. You place one wire in each end, overl...

Thanks, Scott. I never thought to remove the dash.

Ok, I have a part number of 01-80357A57 for the wall mounted power cable for the HLN4008E RIB. However, that number does not come up on MOL. Does anyone know if this number has been changed to a HLNxxxx or SPAxxxx type part number? Thanks!

Ray,

You don't have the radio turned on while charging the battery do you? The radio shouldn't cause the battery not to charge, theoretically speaking.
