Just rerunning my loom at the moment and need to extend it and a question on this particular wire. The big brown wire in the pic has a black and white wire inside it and also bare wire. My question is if I dont have a wire like that to extend it with do I just run 3 separate wires 1 to the black 1 to the white and 1 to the bare?

yes, that's right, 3 seperate wires.

But, generally wires with an external unsheathed wire are sheilded (eg CAS wires), so make sure each new wire is kept well apart, and well insulated, eg lots of heatshrink around each.

those 2 wires inside the shield are most probably comms related. If you don't shield them properly you could get noise in. And noise affects the data that its sending. If you strip them back further you will find they are twisted. You can buy twisted pair shielded cable from any electrical shops.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
