🔌 Function

Joins two parts of the instrument wiring, carrying low-current signals between a sender or panel and the harness.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Gauge reading erratically, dropping out or sitting at full scale
• Warning lamp flickering with engine vibration
• Green or white corrosion in the pins when the connector is opened
• Terminal backed out of its housing, or a pin spread and slack
• Locking latch broken so the halves separate in service

🛠️ Service Notes

• Check the pins and seals before condemning a sender or a gauge - instrument faults are more often in the connection than in the instrument
• Seat the seal and latch fully on refitting and keep the joint out of standing water
