Hi,

I was wondering if anyone would have the male end of the circular connector that fits the fuel temp gauge.

Thanks,

Michel

What year is your car. I'm not 100% certain that the pinout stayed the same across the range.

That gauge is from a late car. They changed the connection from 1980.

That is a good thing to know. I will be rewiring so no matter. Still looking for connector that will fit those pins on the gauge.

One way could be finding single connectors that fit those pins on the cauge and making the connector yourself.

Did one connector for my old merc that way and it works and doesn't even look that bad. Only problem is that you can't remove the wires from the connector like you could with normal connector.

Basically, find some connectors that just fit the single pins on that cauge, get something that you can drill (wood or plastic) and is tall enough to fit the connectors inside it.

Mark the cauge pins on that thing you're going to use. Drill the holes, put the connectors there and epoxy them in place.

Thanks for the good suggestion. I may do that.

Before you do, let me check my bin of wire harness bits. I might have one for you.
