Apologies if this has already been asked and answered. I searched and could not find. I have a Dolphin S300 pool robot. About 4 or 5 months ago I had a local pool supply company repair it under warranty. The 2 year warranty has since expired. They replaced the power supply/control unit and the control cable or whatever its called - the 50 foot blue cable. I just recently came to the realization that when they replaced my blue cable, they replaced it with the non swivel type. It originally had a swivel cable. When I got it back the last time I had been noticing that the cable was often tangled up. And by often I mean after every cycle. Then I read somewhere, probably here, that sometimes the swivels can get stuck and periodically need a little maintenance. That is when I realized I no longer had a swivel cable. WTH???? I know I had it before so it didn't take much brain power to figure out what happened. "Flipper" has never been anywhere since it arrived new at our house EXCEPT the repair shop. I am not going back to the company to demand a new cable as too much time has passed and they are not very nice people as it is. (we had a falling out over them wanting to charge me a 60 dollar shop fee for doing warranty repairs) Sorry to take so long to arrive at my question but I thought context was important, perhaps not. What I am wondering is if my non swivel cable can be made into a swivel cable? I see that you can purchase the swivel end but I don't know if its that simple or if the rest of the cable is different also. I know some will say it doesn't really help but I can assure you in my particular case it most certainly made a difference. Any help will be appreciated.
