Hello all, a common problem with our cars is the electrical plug connector for the sensor in the thermostat housing for the cooling fan. Does anyone have a part number for this connector to the sensor and the connecting female terminals needed to reconnect the wires. Cheers, Paul. ------------- [IMG]http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/ShepsM3/New-1a1.jpg">[IMG]http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/ShepsM3/New-1b1.jpg"> |

No, it's the size in mm of a certain body part!  Of course it's the kit... Adwo ------------- 1988 Evo 2 Nogarosilver 1997 E39 540i touring |

I think it is the 2.5mm system on ETK - page 61-1296. Difficult to select absolutely the right connector without having the old one in front of you to check against. I think the body of the connector comes apart and goes back together again OK. Also on realoem page 61-15 next to the bottom drawing. wires are 0.75mm if that helps. I found some used connectors in good condition around the engine bay of an E34. IIRC the E34 wiper motor has the same type of connector. I Cut one off along with a decent length of wire and soldered them onto the end of the M3 wiring. ------------- E30 M3 Project - Specification TBC |
