Our Airstream CCD 25 Intl. '05 has been very good to us, wish I could say for my attention to protecting the cable that drapes way too low and should have been "hooked" up with a DRing Clip long ago. Well, the cable began smoldering when bare and frayed wires touched (after we safely go home Thank God) and now the choice is to drive several hours to get the closest Airstream dealer to charge us $300 to replace the entire cable, or as the Service Tech suggested, if there is sufficient length, (which there is) just get a butt connector from a Marine Parts dealer and open the cable, separate the colors, and attach the butt connector. Has anyone tried this? Or have a better suggestion? I do have extended warranty that covers vandalism, but looking at the cable area it seems to be right where it would hand. The actual tear however is not at all frayed and looks as if a "cut" could have been made by a vandal, so who knows?
