Keep losing electric shield cable

[WINDER1987]

Hey guys this is my first electric shield setup the bv2s already came with the rca plug installed and my nytro has the rca plug installed as well but the cord with the male ends doesn't sit in with a really tight fit and our keeps falling out and off on the trail. Does anyone have a remedy for this?

Take a pair of pliers and ever so slightly crimp/squeeze on the metal ring (the ground or negative) that goes around the positive "stub". This has worked well for me over the years.

I do the crimp and also use either a small piece of Velcro or a clear plastic cabinet door bumper shave to give just a bit of resistance.

Here's a trick I came up Run your wire inside your jacket sleeve . It can stay in there all day (if your plug is like a vector under the left hand grip) bring it around your left shoulder and out your collar

Tough to give hand signals with the wire coming out the left sleeve. You'd need a lot of extra wire especially on a stand up sled.

There is a small slit in the outer negative ring. Use a pair of needle nose pliers to bend the corner in to tighten it up. Also, anchoring the stub cable to the helmet will help secure it and prevent you from losing it. Mine is secured to the communicator but in the past I've drilled a small hole in the bottom edge of the helmet and used a cable tie. I've never had much luck with the stick on cable retainers.
