Hi,
I have a folding heavy duty harbor freight trailer that I put together several years ago. I have probably had to repair the wiring harness about 30 times. The story is always the same. I come outside and another portion of the wire corrodes. I replace about a foot of wire only to have another section break. I heat shrink, solder, and use corrosion proof wire nuts like these which have been great at actual splices...but then the rest of the harness still fails....

I am not interested in making my own harness out of wire. I'd just like to buy something from Amazon etc., that doesn't do this.
I HATE HATE HATE wiring after so many years of working in automotive electrical for years so the idea of a pre-made harness appeals to me. Burnt out with building my own harnesses and I live out in the boonies so don't want to travel all over to make my own.
The trailer is stored outside. I don't see anyone else having to make these repairs every month and I am sure that plenty of trailers are left outside.
Could anyone suggest a pre-made wiring harness that is more reliable than the harbor freight?
Thanks
