Re: Replace the power wire in the talon srx

If you have the proper wire, it's easy to do a replacement. We had to resolder one of the motor output wires on the Victor SP we got for early testing, and a Talon SRX is essentially the same.

It's not exactly trivial to replace the wire; you need an appropriately hot soldering iron (or gun), and you need to have good soldering technique to do it well.

This.

But as Alan said, it is possible but you should take PAINS to ensure this never happens again. Pains I say.

Maybe contact VEX/CTRE and see if they're willing to replace the leads for you?
