ford zetec - water sensor - plug required
HowardB - 8/6/12 at 05:39 PM

As per title, I am after the plug that fits the sensor as shown in the pictures.

Sensor_socket
Sensor_socket
sensor_socket_B
sensor_socket_B

It is the Ford ECU water sensor plug from a late zetec as I understand it.

beer tokens are available,....


thanks

I used a couple of minature 'spade' type connectors, because I couldn't get a suitable plug.

I will have a look in the mornning as I will be loom building this weekend if the weather is crap.

thanks every one, I had thought of using an injector plug as the inner is similar, but a lot further down a different shape hole,...

appreciate everyones efforts

fingers crossed

If warren doesnt have one I will have a look as I still have one loom left, minus a few plugs.

Also, Warren, if you need any plugs let me know and I will see what I have as still have most of one loom and an injector loom here

Ford doctors the male and female plastic of their plugs to make fitting easier. The 'fins' on the sender only allow the correct loom connection to fit. If the fins are cut off, not affecting the senders function or locking mechanism then many ford two pin female plugs will fit. Like so.

thanks for that, just what I was thinking, but the injector plugs I have are shallow, and this is deeper. If there is nothing out there, then I'll make something with an old plug and some epoxy.

Thanks again everyone, that is why I like it here so much

I still have a zetec injection loom, and with one or two other plugs, but none like the one I need, I am sure that might be of some use to some one.
