Speed sensor plug replacement

Hi,

As you can see below, my plugs are brittle and break very easily .

Can i just cut and get new plugs like this :

Most folks get new sensors.

If your sensors are original I would suggest you buy new Bosch sensors online, they can be had in the $55- $60 range and while they are not specifically for 3.2 they fit perfectly and the only difference is the cables are longer.

The sensors will get you half way and Timmy2 on the forum should have the female ends. Also, search kroonwireharnessess.com

I used to get them from EagleDay.com, but it appears that they are gone now. These are called Junior Timer Connectors. You can google search for the housings, plugs and pins. Some of the other suggestions might work as well. Here is a quick search for 3 pin connectors such as are for the flywheel sensors. Note the retainer on these release much easier than the original retainer clips.

Like others have suggested, I would recommend changing out the flywheel sensors if the plugs are crumbling.
