Step 7
- Using wire strippers, strip the ends of the red and black wires connected to the the new battery back about a 1/8".
- Twist the strands of the spliced wire together.
- Using a soldering iron, apply heat to one bare wire connections you have just made.
- When the connection is hot enough melt solder on the opposite side of the wire to the iron as shown in the image. Do not melt to much solder.
- Once connection is made wait for it to cool off and gently pull each side of the wire to test durability.
- Repeat this process with the other wire.
- If you do not have access to a soldering iron, leave the old battery wires attached to the motherboard and simply splice the new battery’s wires to them.
- This video provides basic instructions for splicing wires using crimping and heat shrink technique.
