    1. Three pin connector from the AC compressor


    2. 2 pin connector


    3. same type of 2 pin connector


    4. Plug on the heater valve

    RealOEM have a page with part numbers for various plugs etc. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/partgrp.d...82&hg=61&fg=15

    That is for an '89 535i.

    aux fan connector to the switch on radiator
    Plug housing
    Part number: 61 13 1 378 410
    old p/n -Alte Teilnummer: 61 13 0 492 947
    got one from Germany
    http://www.7-forum.com/forum/5/teiln...ter-91890.html
    the old one has different design for the connector in agled design. But the pins with wire in angled design do not fit to the new connector. You need straight pins. So either buy some new pins with short wire attached and resolder them, or find old cable looms and cut these off and resolder them.

    Then I investigated further in the 2 and 3 pins, for example shown on the engine oil level plug. The female plug you can get from BMW, but not the other one. I also got these from Germany from Bosch, I now have 3 pins and 2 pins connectors, both sides, and the male and female pin, plus the rubber protectors for them.
    Here are the numbers


    Kupplungsstecker 3polig. =Boschnr.1 928 402 448
    hatte damals 0,98 Euro/Stk gekostet.(ohne Mwst)

    Und weil ich schon dabei bin.

    Kupplungsstecker 2polig = Boschnr.1 928 402 452

    Und die Gegenstücke:
    2-polig = 50290236(Herth+Buss)
    3-Polig = 50290238(Herth+Buss)

    Und hier die Nummern für die Tüllen(Gummiteile am Kabeleingang):
    2-polig gerade 50281050(Herth+Buss)
    2-polig abgewinkelt 50281051(Herth+Buss)
    3-polig gerade 50821052(Herth+Buss)

    Und noch die Steckkontakte
    Flachstecker: (für die Kupplungstecker): 50253315(Herth+Buss)
    Flachsteckhülsen: (für die Gegenstücke) 50251813(Herth+Buss)

    Problem with RealOEM is they show male fittings but not the female. Trying to figure out which components go together is a real pain. I am thinking about using Weatherpak. They come in 1 to 6 wire configurations all I have to do is figure out wire gauge sizes. Oh I am sure there will be someone who will make a sexual reference to this response. Always is................

    i have a lot of those i need to replace i was just going to order a bunch of either #7 or #8 (7 i'm pretty sure for foglights, temp sensor size plugs) and connect the wires individually you can order them at pelican parts. i'll probably use rubber electrical tape where the plug goes in this case, maybe you'd prefer to do a better job yourself...

    for now i'm making do with canadian tire parts... they suck they are hard to size around the male connector.
