All ya had to do was ask! :mrgreen:

Take a small screwdriver (I prefer a pinion wrench driver), and tightly wrap the wire from start to finish, keeping it tight as you go. the smaller the tool you wrap it around, the tighter the coil.

To straighten a coiled wire, take the same tool on the reverse side and pinch the wire between your thumb and the tool, and pull, like you are starting a lawn mower. You are essentially reversing the curl in the opposite direction.

Be careful not to pull the wire from the source connection, as you could possibly pull it out of the circuit board it is connected to.


Good luck,


dc
