Looking for solder and heat gun to rent or borrow for a small wiring job on my cart
 
Hello, does anyone know where I could rent a solder and heat gun to complete a small wiring job on my golf cart? I might need a 12V test light as well. I’m a renter here and have all these items back home but not here. Appreciate any help or directions some of you might have. I heard some of the Auto Parts store might have these but not sure which ones do have these simple items. Not worth buying for one job. THANKS.

GoBeau, I have all of the items you need, send me a PM and we can get together. NO charge! I also have crimp splices.

A soldering iron is cheap. I assume the heat gun is for heatshrink; just use a match or a throwaway lighter. The only thing you mention that might cost a few bucks would be a multimeter and Radio Shack might have a cheap one.

Thanks Pacjag, I know these items are not worth allot of money but why duplicate what I already have back home. I was looking for a 12 Volt test light not a Voltmeter, that I have with me already. I can use the voltmeter to check the wiring but a 12V test light works best when working on turn signals and brake light wiring. Villagetinker was very kind in his response and that is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks anyways for your sugggestions.

Radio Shack is making a comeback. There is a store in Inverness, and you can still order things online.

What? Did they’re data collected when you brought something crash?

Just be certain to shut off the ignition before you start wiring or else you may end up buying a control box which they charge an Arm & a Hoof for. It's a very sensitive item. It wasn't me this time it was a neighbor. I think it cost him $130?? It was a foolish mistake. Key out of the ignition. Good Luck!
