These carry the electrical signals and power that basically tell everything in your car what to do. Think of them as the nervous system. They transmit juice from the battery to the lights, the starter, the engine control unit, everything. They come in different gauges – thicker ones for higher power needs, thinner ones for things like sensor signals. And there's different insulation too, depending on where in the vehicle they’re going – some need to withstand high heat, others need to be flexible, that sort of thing. They’re absolutely everywhere. From the headlights to the radio, the power windows to the fuel pump, every electrical component relies on wires to function. They create a complete circuit, allowing electricity to flow where it needs to go. They’re usually bundled together in harnesses to keep things organized and protected, but individual wires fail sometimes, and that’s when you start seeing issues. Well, without working wires, things just stop working. You’ll notice if a wire fails because you’ll suddenly lose function – a light goes out, the radio cuts off, the engine might not start. A bad wire can also cause all sorts of weird electrical gremlins – things turning on or off by themselves, warning lights flashing. They act like a shield, protecting the electrical current, but that shield can degrade over time due to heat, corrosion, or just physical damage. You can find a good selection of replacement wires at places like Fixparts Online, and it’s usually a pretty straightforward repair if you can pinpoint the bad one. Replacing a damaged wire is a lot cheaper than replacing the component it powers. Satisfaction guaranteed: Wires (MPN 000979117A) comes with a 12-month warranty!
