TIME TO GET A NEW ONE?...VACUUM CLEANER CORD REPAIR!

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

After identifying the damaged section, use wire cutters to cleanly cut off the failed repair and any visibly damaged portions of the cord. Once cut, slide a piece of 1/2-inch Polyolefin Heat Shrink Tubing, longer than the expected repair area, over one end of the cord. This will be used to cover the entire splice once the connections are made.

Goal: Remove damaged cord and position the main heat shrink tubing.
