Alternative wiring connectors for multi junctions

(1/3) > >>

71 V12:
Another electrical question from me for you experts. I find the single bullet connectors are quite good having a positive click and secure latch to them when pushed together.

However I find the multi bullet connectors like the black 5 way and 4 ways for the indicators quite hopeless. They don't seem to give a secure firm connection at all. Last thing you want is unreliable electrics at any time.

I could cut the connector off the wires, tin the wires and use a standard block connector, but I am sure there must be a better solution, any ideas?

Many thanks,

Kevin

If you mean the multi female bullet and single male connectors you can gently nip up the female part with needle nose pliers to make a tighter fit.
New female connectors are available but you may need to change the males as well as there are 2, very different, sizes.
Those "chocolate block" connectors dont connect to each other unless you fit link wires.

The best solution is to replace the round pin connectors with 6.3mm spade connectors (as image, Yamaha RD250 alternator conversion)
Just curious, which Honda are you working on?

Hi Al.

Hi Al,
I think I see what you mean now. Do you double/ triple crimp the wires to the 6.3mm terminals?
