to put a basic connector in.
good luck


Thanks for the pointer Chris, solved a sudden cut out for me after checking the inertia switch. This is mine ( the white connector) on the Gems 2003, if anyone is curious/trouble shooting. It is perishing, so replacement imminent. Looks like its had a bodge job anyway, or maybe thats the only bits left in the box that week at MMC? doh

Either way, TM was my go to to find the answer, so thanks chaps, keep it up cheers
