My keyless entry and rear wiper and washer have been working intermittently for a while now and today I lost them permanently it seems. I removed the liftgate to body wiring boot and all 6 wires need to be repaired. I plan on soldering a new length of wire to each broken wire, pull all the new wiring through the boot and solder the remaining connections back together and seal all connections in heat shrink tube.
My question is, does anyone know what gauge and type of wire would be best to repair this? There seems to be several different gauges of wire in the boot and I would like know if I need to replace them with the exact same gauge wire that is already installed from the factory? Any recommendations on a good brand name of wire and wire gauge would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Steve.
