What is the female version of this connector? 6 button obc

[cirrusblue]

I've got a busted 6 button OBC and want to make a connector that connects to a 4 button "clock" connector. Any 6 button harness has the 4 button connector I can splice from, but I"ve seen a female version of the 12 terminal greenplug. Harness link attached - plug pix attached.

I just don't know if anyone knows about the female version of the green plug.
I"ve seen these made, but don't know the part. Any ideas welcome. This woudl allow me to plug things in without having to hack the 6 button harness itself.

Female plug in obc

The female side looks like this, I guess maybe I could pry one out of a broken obc?

That connector is a surface mount component that is soldered to the circuit board of the OBC. You can't just pry it out.

You could measure the plug and find a header that is the same size.


Check out either Digikey or Mouser.

great advice

thanks for the advice on the connector.. I'll try to find it at mouser, I have no idea what its' called, but I know if I can find it I can solder up a connector and it should work well.
