you said you're going to Portugal right.........well guess who's going to be there.......Ken Crane!!!!!!!!!! give him a call and see if it's something that they will be able to fix before the event so that you'll have your marker.

Same thing happened to me a couiple of weeks ago on my dark. Remove the crimp connector from the plastic plug by releasing the lock with a small pick and push the crimp out. Then strip the end of the broken wire back so you can slide the exposed wire through the plastic plug and then up one side of the plug opposite of the other terminal. (to make sure they do not touch each other) Plug it in and make sure it is tight and it should work fine as a temp fix. (worked for mine :)) I also thought about using the intellifeed plug (the board plug is the same as the solenoid one) as a donor and solder it as a replacement for the solenoid. I would have done this and just repaired it latter w/ a pigtail from wdp but I was able to use the first technique listed and get it going for the day. The exact same thing happened on an eblade I bought used. Eclipse sent me enough connectors and plugs to repair 2 of them but unfortunately they are different then the wdp plug. (same conector though) If anyone knows where to buy replacement crimps and plugs (and the microscopic crimp tool required) please post :) Sorry for the long read

had to did an other post out from the Dead and bring it back to life.

my wire from the solenoid plug cut loose and now they is no spare parts for the wire plus ONLY.

they (no names) said not to weld the intelli feed wire in place but to change to
solenoid complety which is way out of my cost. (more than a HALO)

The Angel is out of warrenty after 6months.

well I'll spend at least 20.00 for the intelli feed wire and i'll shrink wrap it for more durability.
