Or go to a scrappy and cut one out - the same type of plug will probably be used on loads of cars/places

the wires pull thru the bask of the plug, crimp to the connectors and then pull back into the plug


take yours off and have a look at it before you order

2 port female timer plug, ruber boot, and 2 junior timer terminals.

crimping tool if you dont have one, but you can bodge it with other forms of crimping tools, not that i would recommend that.

I've got the same problem with my connector but on my ecos it has 4 cables going into it so this 2 port won't work.Might be worth checking yours first.You might beable to buy just the femal terminals & remake using your exsisting connector.

ecos95, you might have an aftermaket sensor wired into it aswell.

As im 99% sure every WTS across the cossy range has only 2 wires in the WTS

Only one I can think of is Escort Cos fan switch in the radiator - that's 4 wires.

Hi Ryan,
A friend at ford said the same thing, I thought it might be because of the air con.I'll have to buy the terminal on its own and just re-crimp it.

yeah if its isnt causing you any issues dont change it.

wont be because of aircon, well i can see why it would need to know that WTS reading, seeing as that WTS sensor is purely for the ECU.
