will Tesoro Shorten Cables on coils ?

Have this coil That I would like to get the 6ft cable shortened to 3 ft in length I am not good at soldering ! And I do not want to cut and splice will pay to have it done
 
If your lucky to have a local CB shop near you, they should be able to do this as they have the solder skills, The wiring scheme is on there website, or the last resort would send it to tesoro., good luck on your project
 
If I had more time I would do it. Before doing anyone elses I want to try on mine so I don't screw someone elses up. A local electronics tech or repair shop, or CB shop as Rob said should be able to do it.
 
No CB shops around me I think I will contact Tesoro and see if they will do it for me for a fee Thanks for the replys
 
Vince Gifford (Tesoro) told me that they would shorten any Tesoro coil cable that we wanted shortened.----That's been probably 3 or 4 years ago he told me that but I doubt if their policy has changed.-----As to cost for doing it---I don't know what the cost would be--didn't ask him that.-----If you do contact Tesoro, let us know what the cost is for doing this.

Wheres the wiring scheme located on the Tesoro website ? I can't find it.
 
Go to there home page, then click on the more coils, then its at the bottom of the page.
 
I have to have two coil wires shortened.I doubt there will be a charge very seriously.I feel so powerful with a bag full of fresh Tesoros.
 
Contacted Tesoro they just told me to send it in with what I wanted done and My contact info Charge or no Charge makes no never mind to me Just want it done and done right I am sending it in this week to Them .
 
I'd doubt that they'd charge much. IMHO we worry a bit too much about FREE repairs, particularly on older machines.

Tesoro is usually very leery on modifying their products, however give them a call.

Any electronics shop can do this in minutes and even check the solder joints..I don't feel it would alter the units ability and make for a more tidy unit to swing....
 
As I stated in my above response----I already called Tesoro on this & Vince Gifford told me they would shorten any coil cables we wanted shortened.------Personally, I wouldn't have an electronics shop or anyone else do it as it might void the warranty.

But Tesoro also knows how dealers do not explain to the customer about long and short cables and sells the customer a long cable every time.They are very good about doing coil cables for this reason .I bought two longs because these coils did not come with a short cable.It is best to just let Tesoro do any coil wire work.
 
It is being sent in to tesoro as I was told to do , Like I stated I dont care about a charge I just want the experts to do it so its done Right this is a great little coil and I dont want it messed Up+
will let yall know the out come when I get it Back
 
I'm sure it will be done in fine shape Barry.------You can be sure that Rusty will make sure it's "up to snuff" before it ever goes out the door.

That's good news. Rusty is fun to do business with. I buy all my new stuff from him. That's how I got a short cable on my 8 inch doughnut coil for my Vaquero. That coil normally comes with a long cable. When I placed the order, I just told him that I wanted a short cable for that coil and it taken care of. No charge.:thumbup:

If you find another good deal on some Rapoo H3070 headphones, you let me know. I'd like to give them a try.
