Got a new trolling motor and am prepping for installation. I have read that soldering the wires to the terminals is recommended due to vibration.
What type of solder is needed? I see rosin core, plumbing, lead free, etc.
What method is best for adhesion? Terminals have a small "cup" that wire sits in. Do I cut some solder, fill the "cup" halfway, hild the terminal with some pliers, heat the terminal end to melt the solder and insert the wire into the molten solder?
Or do I insert the wire, crimp the heavy terminal and than add solder into/around the spaces?
