5K0955453B Volkswagen WATER RES.

These connectors, as the name suggests, connect wires, but they’re specifically designed to keep moisture out. They create a solid electrical connection while also forming a seal against water and dust. Think of it like a really tight handshake combined with a waterproof jacket for the wires. It’s not fully submersible, but it’s built to handle rain, splashes, and the general dampness a vehicle encounters. You'll find these pretty much anywhere wiring needs to be protected from the elements. Common spots are headlights, taillights, sensors, and anywhere a wire passes through the body of the car. They connect things like the wiring harness to individual components. It’s a small part, but it’s part of a larger network that keeps everything talking to each other. Moisture getting into electrical connections is a recipe for trouble. It causes corrosion, which weakens the connection and can eventually lead to shorts, failures, and all kinds of headaches. These connectors prevent that. You'll notice if one fails because you might get flickering lights, sensors throwing errors, or even things just completely stopping working. They’re designed to last, but over time, weather and vibration can degrade the seal. If you're doing any work around exterior lights or sensors, replacing these as preventative maintenance can save you a lot of trouble down the road. We carry a good selection of these at Fixparts Online, so if you need to replace one, we can usually get you exactly what you need. Your satisfaction is our mission: Water Resistant Connector (MPN 5K0955453B) includes a 12-month warranty!
