The issue my cannon is having is there is an intermittent break in one of the wires that goes to the transmitting opto. Question is, can't this easily be fixed my just splicing about a 8-10" section of each of these wires, then putting some shrink tubing back over it?

yeah I would think so

Johnny,

Is this your machine on Craigslist?

Beleive i saw on an earlier post you were selling it... Am I correct?

You should be able to splice a new wire. Solder the connections and seal with shrink tubbing.
Again, assuming the break is in the wire...

Yeah, I left that ad up. I have word from someone they want to buy it this weekend.

Thanks for the reminder. I just pulled the ad. I consider it bad form to make a deal and leave the ad posted

Even easier fix is to just but the new looms, they are available online as this is a very common problem.

Yeah, I can imagine that is easier, but I have wire laying around the house. If I can do just as good a job and not spend $50, I'd rather do that
