Are you going to solder the connection this time? If so, get some
small heat shrink tubing and slip it over the wire before soldering.
Use resin core (electronic" solder, and then slide the heat shrink
over the joint and shrink it on with a heat gun. Not a bad idea to
slobber som dialectric grease over the connection before sliding the
heat shrink over it to make a "gas tite" fitting - and keep all
moisture and air out of the joint.
I did consider soldering. Havn't done much
wire soldering for last 30 years. I did
finally settle on a orange wire nut. Tape,
tie wraps. Went in the van to the auto parts
store for some parts for my other car.
A regular poster here, once mentioned conductive epoxy. No need to
solder...
