You will want their wires since they are pre-crimped and slide right into the connector. Leave yourself a few inches of slack then cut the new wire and splice into the stock wires.

Don't give up the ship!  Others should chime in with some more help.

Thermodynamics.  The stock molex plug is underrated for the current so it heats up and expands.

However, Now whenever I click heat bed in Repetier host, the bed doesn't heat at all. Any ideas?
