Probably this one:
http://www.digikey.com/product-detai...675-ND/1633839

Remember, you have to check the center-to-center spacing on the pins.
They make several different sizes.

Also, you have to order the male and female pins separately; they're not
part of the connector housing, which is all that's shown there.

Yep, I think this is the shell. Last time I got three foot of wire
plus a sheath plus all of the connectors all mounted. that is,
everything you see in the pic.

I'd much rather go this route, bet there is some special crimp tool
I'd have to buy other wise.

You can buy one, but a standard "GC" style electrical ferrule crimper will
work fine.

You're going to search a bit to find just the shell you need with pins and
wires already installed. It's a custom item.

Molex (Tyco) mate-n-lok maybe.

Mate-n-lock is a trademark of AMP, not Molex. The connectors are
VERY similar, but not interchangeable. One version of Mate-n-lock
has D-shaped plastic surrounding some of the pins, making it impossible
to plug in wrong. Your photos seem to show this style. But, if it
is automotive, it may be totally custom and not compatible with
standard units.

Do you have Pep Boys auto parts stores near you? They have a decent
selection of premade wiring pigtails in their trailer wiring section. Might
be able to browse and order online, so you could match your connector to
their pictures.

That looks like an automotive style of connector, Karl. The motor on
the end looks like either a wiper or window motor/transmichigan. I
think I've seen those on Fords before, but it has been a while. NO
idea what they're called. Try a local body shop or Ford dealer. They
have to stock all sorts of clips and connectors for repair work.

Make sure you have a proper pin removal tool if you have to try to
save the original pins/wiring. MAC/Matco/Snap-On/Cornwell tool trucks
all have them in stock, or used to.

Does it have to be Digikey? I've been getting connectors from
Mouser a lot recently.

The connectors in question are made/sold by AMP/Tyco (which now
also owns Molex). Hmm ... Now called "TE-Connectivity/AMP". :-)

"Bullet type" doesn't describe that in an way I would consider.

There are three sizes which fit that description, one large with
higher current pins.

The larger size is called "Universal Mate-N-Lock" and the
smaller two "(Mini and Micro) Mate-N-Lock". I think that yours is the
"Uniiversal" size based on the photo (which could have benefited from a lot
less of the cable, and a lot closer to the connector. It is a good
thing that I recognized the series. :-)

Mouser's number for the male one is "571-7700211 " and the "TE
Connectivity/AMP" number is "770021-1".

Mouser has it priced as $1.35 per connector in unit quantities,
or down to $1.10 in 50 quantities. (And, they don't have a minimum
order.

Here is a web page with the whole series listed, including the
pins mentioned below. There are various mounting styles, so go through
there. I suspect that you want the "free hanging" or "Panel Mount, Free
Hanging" styles.

The first pins shown are $0.14 each, or $0.10 in 100s. Beware
to check how many are in stock -- some are "you have to wait for some to
arrive -- we don't stock them". :-)

http://www.mouser.com/TE-Connectivity/Pin-Socket-Connectors/Universal-Mate-N-Lok-Series/_/N-1yzs6iiZay0mmZ1yzv99w

BTW -- you will also need to order pins for it, and a crimp tool
for "type-F" crimp pins (at least it isn't the machined pins which get
you into serious money for the crimper and its positioner bushing. :-)

The crimp pins are available for 30 through 16 Gauge.

And -- you will also want a special tool for extracting the pins
if you put them in the wrong holes or need to change it somehow else.

Good Luck,
DoN.

Thanks, everybody, for all the advice.

This connector with cables came with my electric sprayer control
module I installed in the John Deere in 1998. I could see it needed
durability improvement so i made a real neat hollowed out steel sleeve
for the plug and a matching tube socket for the plug in. After only 16
years, it has wore out.

The pic is of my electric spout turner for the snowblower. As its
installed only once a year, I didn't make up another steel sleeve. I
don't remember where I got it but this connector has all the pins,
wire, and cable assembled. Anyway, made way better than I would be
able to do.


ANYWAY, after wasting a bunch of time searching for this, I got a
better idea:

I'll move up to the 7 conductor plug and plug in used on my 24,000 lb.
trailer. My truck had this wear out and etrailer.com has a real
quality unit:
http://www.etrailer.com/Wiring/Bargman/50-87-004.html

I'm sure finding a trailer plug with wire will be a piece of cake.

Karl

When I was rebuilding my Saab 900 Turbo I got sick of the proprietary Molex/AMP connectors which suck anyway. I purchased a GM Weather Pack kit and never looked back.

**** this propriety connector bull****. I cut em off and toss them in the garbage where they belong.
