I was driving yesterday at night on the freeway, when all of a sudden the car lights started to dim. When I exited the freeway, the car just stalled and wouldn't turn back on. I poped open the hood and I noticed that the wires that connect to the positive battery terminal are cut, which they barely if anything touch each other.

Does anybody know how I can replace/fix these wires efficiently (with specs on wires if necessary).

Can someone please help me, quickly, my DSM is stuck in the projects right now, and God knows what can happen to it there.

Thanx

Are these the white wires (not the huge one that goes to the starter)? If so, you will have problems finding them at an auto store since they are factory wiring specific. They are each 5 sq. mm (spec) with 2 (on 1 ring lug) going to the 100A fusable link and the other 2 (on 2nd ring lug) going to all the remaining fusable links (all in the engine fusebox). You could temporarily crimp new ring lugs on them until you get a chance to solder the ring lugs onto the wires (you must solder as crimping won't hold long with all the vibration and stess).

! Yeah, I know how you must feel. I totally agree with what he ^^ said and you might want to try and see why your cables got cut in the first place because you have a really unusual problem. Make sure your hood isnt dented or something and coming into contact with your battery terminal or any of the 12v wires that are exposed.
