source for stater wire pigtail/connector?

[ValiantOne]

Hey all,

I have a mini starter that I want to install. It has a round plastic connector (see pics) for the small single start wire. I did a search on this forum and I saw:
-go to a dealer and get a a pig tail for it.........
To which the reply was, "I went to the dealer and they had no idea what I was talking about"
and
-Go to a junkyard and cut a like connector off.
I really don't want to go this route. Multiple reasons, mostly the local yard is run by DICKS.

I also googl-ed and rockauto-ed to no avail.

Is this a industry standard connector? I figger maybe one of you electrical gurus will say, "oh yeah that is just a blah, blah, blah connector. Order one up at such and such"

That is what I am hoping for anyhow!

Thanks,

CE

I can get you one from a pick a part near me if you want.

Tim, that is very kind. I hope it won't come to that though. These things must be available new somewhere! Thank you!

Go back to the dealer and ask for 05017122AB. Its about $40

Thank you for the part number. I'll give it a try, although if it ends up being $40 for a $2 part i just may go the used route! Gotta love the stealerships.... Can't believe i used to work for one.

Hrrrm. Well called two dealers in my area. They say it is a valid part # , but cannot tell me what the part is. Grrr. They can tell me it is wiring related, but dont have it in stock so they can't look to confirm.

Okay, thinking the used route may be the way!

Call Mouser Electronics and send them a picture of the connector.

How bout calling a few starter manufacturers or alternator/starter rebuild shops? Maybe they can supply the pigtail or at least have a part number.

Lol, I know 2 starter rebuild shops. Can't believe I didn't think of that.........

See this post, then pick out the kind you want, and take the applicable numbers to the rebuild shop.

So i went out and tried to take off the existing connector on my starter. It was a no go. The molded plastic terminal doesn't come off from the top. Do i have to take the end off the solenoid?
