Wire Harness Repair pigtail

[fordstanger]

Is there a source for vehicle harness/connector repair pigtails? I noted one on the left rear height sensor but cannot seem to find a source. My local dealer is not a lot of help. 

 

I need:

1) for the left front ride height sensor 

2) Transfer Case Connecter (small one)

Welcome to RennTech 

Not surprised the dealer wasn't much help, you are looking for harness pieces for a 17 year old vehicle, so they may no longer have access to them, and Porsche tended to run wire harnesses in large sections, such as "rear of the vehicle" or "engine bay", so they may have never been available as a simple repair pig tail.  You might have better luck at a VW dealer as Porsche used a lot of VW components in these cars, and VW used them longer.  Another possibility is to figure out the connector configuration, source the connector, and fabricate your own.  A junk yard or fleabay is another possiblity.  Good luck!

Thanks. I have been searching on eBay. I guess I thought there may be source since I discovered the prior repair. Still keeping my hopes up. I am familiar with aircraft connector repair and may go that direction but figured I could take the easy road!  

 

The web based searches are more challenging than ever. I kind of liked it better before the algorithms. 

 

Is there a Porsche centric dismantler in the US that is focused on just Porsche? I figured there would be somewhere equivalent to what I use for Land Rovers.  

 

This one is a 255K mile experiment that may lead to more, but we will see. It runs and drives great but has the same quirkiness as my LRs, at least I think Porsche electronics is better than Lucas. Or is it?
