My service active suspension warning came on today. After a quick search online, I found out that my 18" wheels have chewed through the shock wire. Question is, does anyone know what gauge the shock wire is? My wire strippers are 10-22 awg and this wire is definitely bigger.

Are there not multiple conductors inside the outer sheath?

Good to know, should still be an easy fix. Interested to find out what gauge the overall is. The wire strippers I have now will be fine for the ones inside I'm sure since they'll be a lot smaller.

It looks like each individual wire is 20awg.

Here are the wire and connector assignments, for each damper:
