Les Brock Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Hi Chaps, Can anyone help with this one ? TD5 normal rear loom to rear TD5 tank with ROW sender unit, obviously they dont fit ! Anyone know if you can get a convertor, or a male to connnector and female to tank connector so I can make one up. And no the pipes are not connnected before someone comments Dont really want to cut it off as the whole idea is to keep it TD5 compatable when the time comes to retire the 200Tdi Ta !

The connector moulded on the tank sender/pump is a Tyco Econoseal 4-way male, the mating female connector is available from Polevolt - http://www.polevolt....info_ESC4F.html The one on the loom in your hand, is a Tyco 2.5mm pin/socket series, made exclusively for BMW - Tyco won't sell it to you. You can buy some bits from BMW - connnector housings, terminals and wire seals. Although, I've not seen a cable mounted male 4-way connector. The male half is usually moulded as part of a device. My suggestion would be to buy a male and female 4-way Econoseal. Cut the BMW connector off of your vehicle harness, leaving short tails on the BMW connector. Fit a male Econoseal connector to the tails on the BMW connector, to make a short adaptor loom. Fit the female Econoseal connector to the vehicle harness. When you want to revert to TD5, you have then have an adaptor to convert the vehicle loom back to TD5 spec. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
