Key Features & Benefits

Basically, this little guy connects electrical signals. It’s a connector, but it uses a spring – loaded pin inside to make solid contact. Think of it like a tiny, reliable handshake between wires. It carries the signal, completing the circuit so things can talk to each other. It's designed to handle vibrations and movement without losing that connection. These plugs pop up in a lot of different places, but generally they’re part of the drivetrain electronics – things like sensors that tell the computer how the engine and transmission are doing. You’ll often find them connecting to wheel speed sensors, or maybe even the transmission range selector. It's rarely the most visible part, but it's part of a system working behind the scenes.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If this plug fails, you’ll notice if the system it's connected to starts acting up. You might get warning lights on your dash, or experience a noticeable change in how your car drives – things like rough shifting or ABS issues. It’s a small part, but a crucial one. A failing connection here can send false information to the computer, leading to all sorts of problems. They’re pretty durable, but they can corrode over time or the spring can lose its tension. We carry a good selection of these at Fixparts Online, and replacing one is usually a fairly straightforward repair.
