Ignition Plug with broken wires help? w/ pic

[NeedSpace]

I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel before the engine goes in. A bosch plug has some frayed wires. This black plug has 1 brown and 1 red and white wires detached. Can this be fixed or must I replace it? If so what is it called and where can I get it? Also, what does this do?

That looks like the warm up regulator wire. Its in series thats why there is 2 wires of each color because its also going somewhere else too. Any Bosch garage should have the unit with a good pigtail, even new.

Great, I am hoping to hit one tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes.

This was a pretty easy fix. It appears this part is standard bosch as it also goes to a number of mercedes and BWMs. I found the part at a very reasonable price. I purchased 2 in case I screwed up the first time. Which of course, I did.

"Fuel Injector Repair Kit; Terminal Repair Kit For 2 Prong Bosch Injector Type Plug." It is not sold by Pelican. Hmm, after 2 failed attempts to put the company name, I realize Pelican must not let me put competitor names. Makes sense. Do a search on the name above or use the the part number 1287013003. The website I found them ended in AZ and only cost about $8.

Be conservative with your wire cutters so you don;t have to rewire anything. Next time, I may have to go with one with pigtails.



Cut off the bad wire, and trim back the black plastic wire cover. Don't forget to put the sleeve on!



Attach metal clips. Be sure to clamp down hard. I first used simple pliers, but this didn't give it a firm grasp (thus having to do it a second time). The back part covers the plastic cover, the front part grabs the wire.



Slide metal clips into adapter until you hear the two "clicks". Roll back sleeve and install. Woohoo!
