Door Jamb/ Door light Switch Connector

MF290 · 27-08-2021 01:27PM #1

The central light, and door light were not coming on when opening the rear left door on my mk1 Kia sorento. I checked the door jamb switch and one of the wires was corroded. Cut the wire back to where it was still good.

Long story short I'm trying to find the name of the connector to go into the brake switch and or what crimps I should be looking for. From what I can see they are 2.8mm crimps, a 3 pin female connector.

Problem is I can't find a connector of similar design to fit the brake switch.

Any help greatly appreciated if there are any boardsies still floating about

Could use something like these if you can’t replace the plug. 3 small female terminals crimped onto the wires.

Thanks, that looks the job. It's hard find specific things on ebay or amazon in particular I find.

No bother. The dealers can get proper pins for loom repair also but sometimes they are hard to find on the parts systems & the price for them doesn't justify the trouble.
