Does a replacement exisit for this terminal?
 

This terminal has obviously shorted at some stage of its life. Keen to replace it - any thoughts? (From iginition switch to fuse box).

doesn't appear to be a factory item. try a trailer supply store.

Better yet, try to figure out why somebody used that and see if you can undo whatever they modified.

+1 on both suggestions so far.

I'm surprised - the other end of these wires that connects to the ignition switch appears to have all original connections.... Hmm back to the drawing board I guess then.

Do you suppose that a previous owner added this to allow him to have a simple anti-theft feature? Unplug the connector to "enable" the anti-theft "system".

Possibly. Just Behind the ignition switch. Thanks for the heads up gents - will be ripping that puppy out tomorrow!

That does not look like a trailer connector as those are either 4 wire or seven wire. The seven wire connector is a large round plug. Are there just the three male terminals on that plug? Here is a trailer connector for comparison
