Any way this can be done with reliable results, short of taking it to a shop??

Not recommended…even from a shop. Wrap up the extra use a zip lock and stow the extra away in someplace out of the way.
I know it can be done, but you’ll lose reliability.

It was a good suggestion, but I think you are giving him a little too much credit calling him “Brain”.
May 31, 2011 at 7:03 pm #970121Oh come on!
May 31, 2011 at 9:59 pm #970143Like mentioned wrap up the excess out of the way, but dont wind the cable to tight or bend it to sharp. That will cause more problems.
May 31, 2011 at 10:55 pm #970153Never. Coil it up and ziptie it.
June 1, 2011 at 4:07 am #970198Why not loop it and zip tie it (6in to 12in long), it is a shielded cable?

I concur, don’t do it…..Jack
June 1, 2011 at 5:32 am #970210I’m thinking you’re out numbered.
June 1, 2011 at 4:49 pm #970319i’ve always coiled over the last 25 years and was just hoping that something had come up.
oh well…
