Looking for a plug like this L Series ??

Post by steptoe » Sun Jun 03, 2012 10:41 pm

Ignore ?? marks. I am looking for this, not asking if anyone else is :(

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BWD-Automoti ... 58935d0fa6

this should link OK for a while.

Somewhere on an L Series I found a plug like this, no fin on top or divider inside, but two male spade terminals same orientation (no, not you in the pink Subaru in Townsville !! :( ) The plug looks just like the connection of MY and L Series horn , on the horn. I had one, can't find it, want more, to use in hooking up my air horn compressor relay, coz the realay uses both wires from horn switch, and being a little anal about making nice fit plug instead of just two spade terminals and silicone insulation - anyone recognise the plug and where it is in an L Series, so I can pinch more ??

Any clues ??:confused:

I know the one you mean, its white and has clips on the side, as opposed to a clip on the top like the example you posted.

I'll have a look if I head out there tomorrow.

No go on the yellow ones Carl, thanks for trying. I stumbled on this plug and thought it was perfect for doing the air horn relay, tested it on a spare factory horn - and put it aside somewhere. May be a radiator switch ? , na, it has to be same as what the horn has to take its place. Not common at all to be same same in the way they face :(

Ah true. I just checked out the actual horn, its plug is not removable, unless you drill out the studs and solder new wires onto the lugs. Why not get a pair of matching weatherproof round plugs, like some of the engine bay plugs are like and wire in instead?

mmmm. thanks for ya efforts.

I have done a bodgy for time being on my GLTA experimental car, planning is for the Vorts air horns one day, wanting everything to stay factory look plug and play - seeing as though no bodgy wiring has been done on it yet by former owners , like it to stay that way

Could it be the coil connection? It has both yellow and black/white wires.

Nah, thinking closer to transmission ..auto maybe ???? Coil conns were round plug set ups. Thanks for trying anyway. It'll hit someone one day as they pull apart an L .....
