    A robotic lawnmower can be a considerable relief in the garden, but what happens if the boundary wire or control cable is damaged? In this blog post, I describe step by step how I quickly and easily repaired the defective control cable and the broken boundary wire on my robotic lawnmower. A cable break on the boundary wire of my robotic lawnmower recently presented me with a challenge. While I was out with the gas mower, the mower was set too low and cut the boundary wire. Although the cable was laid in the ground, it was completely cut through.

    If the robotic lawnmower no longer wants to drive, it is often due to a defective or broken control cable. But how do you find the broken spot on the boundary wire? And how can you repair the damage quickly and easily yourself? I have made a video on precisely these questions and will now provide many more important tips and tricks with this entry.
