[QUOTE="Hilux, post: 670261, member: 23052"] I'd take it to someone who does electronics repairs or DIY if you have the skills. Have them remove the plug and fit some adhesive lined heat-shrink over the entire cable length and then refit the plug. It will not affect the characteristics of the cable except for its springiness or whatever in how it wrap around the shaft. If its loosely wrapped around the shaft while hot it will assume the coiled shape. I'd also use some Sika 291 to bond the cable sheath the cold body. It should be good for years. [/QUOTE]
