So if one of you has a source fr the AMP junior timer 3 contacts male plug, speak now  ;)

So that is what the little buggers are. I spent 40 minutes at Ashdown Ingrams the other day trying to identify the connector. If they are really unavailable I think I will simply use the first three connectors of a standard PC power connector - solid contact, dead simple and cheap as.

I've two !
I saw the schematics and ordered the plug, then waiting for it I saw that Motobins had a very attractive sale on the original BMW tool on their Ebay's account. I was mad to buy one...
The Motobins showed first.
As I had all the parts to copy it, I made a second one. Just missing the plug (I save it for... who knows ...) You can go without the plug provided you use small test pins and RESPECT the correct wiring...
LED is lit without anything into the sensor's gap.
As per the male connector, I was told by two vendors that it is not produced any more, as makers of sensors for the automotive industry make it on their factory. This way, they have a complete equipment. (like the mains plug on any appliance, they are moulded directly on the wire.) and this is strange as you may need some for the testing devices and/or maintenance equipment...

Hello Lads,
As I've got one brand new AMP connector, I get my glasses on and looked at it thoroughly. (actually, I took them of as I'm short sighted  :D )
The P/N is stamped on it. And guess what ? Farnell has them ... As a German company...
It's 1-962581-1 for the male 3 prong plug. Farnell sells them 10 by 10, but for a little bit higher, you can get them a piece in Germany here : http://www.kabelschuhe-shop.de/Connectors/AMP-JPT/JPT-3-pin-flat-plug-housing::7981.html
And Farnell's here : http://fr.farnell.com/jsp/displayProduct.jsp?sku=1863638&CMP=KNC-GFR-FFR-GEN-SKU-MDC&mckv=srCCvrQSW|pcrid|20175933794|kword|1-962581-1|match|p|plid|
Of course, it's not a kit, so you have to buy, also, the prongs, the 3 sealing gaskets, and the sealing boot. Everything on the German site.
So now, no excuse not to repair those bean-can waiting in the shop !
I'm, of course, not affiliated with any of these, not even a customer.  :P
