TX Damaged ABS wire... can it be spliced?

FD .. right (passenger) front ABS wire. It comes from the wheel, through the apron, then back towards the ABS actuator/ECU area. My turbo melted it. I need to extend it out of the path of the turbo.

This is a black and white wire with a thick should surrounding them. Does anybody know if it can be spliced and extended? Or do i need to buy a new one?

Thanks.

I think it can be repaired, it's definitely worth a try. New sensors are VERY pricey and they hold their value well used.

It's built in to the ABS sensor on the wheel, it's all one piece up to the plug by the ABS pump.

Not to mention quite hard to find I spent quite a while looking for mine .

just make sure you do some quality work on it . and make sure the protector is water tight

heatshrinks are a good idea dont go cheap with them LOL
