Brief Description:  Repair Broken Wire on Temp Probe

On the pervious day's efforts to install the temperature probe one of the lead wires from the sensor broke. There was about 3/16 inch of wire extending from the probe. 1/16 inch of insulation was removed from the wire and it was tined with the soldering iron. The other end of the broken wire was also striped and tined. The wires were fed through the side of the fuselage and the broken wires were soldered together. The probe was installed back into the side of the fuselage and the washer and nut was attempted to be fed down over the wires and splices. In the process of securing the probe the wire broke again. The second try was to solder an extension wire onto the probe and feed it back through the side of the fuselage. Again when temping to get the washer and nut on the probe the lead broke again. This time the lead broke inside the probe and there was no way to connect to the lead. A replacement probe will have to be ordered.
