Should be . 156 connectors. Most people recommend using trifurcon molex connectors instead of IDC connectors. Marco sells the connectors and and new plastic housings. I have found that a ratcheting crimping tool works best. Connections are tight and professional looking. Only strip Avery small amount off the wire or it will protrude out of the back of plastic housing after the crimp instead of being in the plastic. Do one wire at a time so you don't mix them up.This is very important. You should be able to find a tutorial on you tube or Pinside .

Forgot to mention. Count the number of wires that are in the connector you are replacing to order the right size plastc connector. If there is a key or space not used they sell plastic plugs that go in the connector .

I'd order extra connectors if this is your first time doing this. You'll see on the to pof the crimp terminal there is a slot that locks into the connector housing. If you put it in the wrong way it won't lock and will come out or get stuck in there.

LTG, if he has two put two wires in the same connector slot what is the best method? Sometimes they also loop back in. I've always had trouble with that. Slot to small for two wires ...

Thanks Loyd. miller, you may have to do this on some of your connectors. This is if two wires need to go in the same connector. Glad to help....

The wire should have went in further but was tough taking a pic . I think you get the idea..

Lay your connector yor in the jaws like this. It's the opposite of what you would think. Put wire in and close / open the ratcheting pliers quickly. If you don't it's hard to get the wire and connector to come out.

Not sure on that one. Sorry. Hopefully someone else chimes in..

I think that is the original style IDC connector. If so I think you need special tool. Most people say they are not as good a connection as the style I recommended previously.

No problem . Hope it works out . Please post when done if you choose to.

That sucks. Were the lights that are now out working before you repinned the connector? So now you have more G.I . Lights out than before?

Can you check the manual to see what all connectors are used for G.I.? If you lost lighting after re pinning j -115 you would think it has to do with that connector. You did one at at a time right so none could get mixed up? Maybe the pins on the board on j-115 were damaged from heat of the connector.

Most repair references recommend repinning the connector AND also the header pins on the board but I looked at your original pic and done see heat damage. If you repiinined the connector without mixing them up maybe the header pins on board need replaced. I've never seen it but some have said you can check them for cracks .

Oh I didn't know he changed pins and connector Loyd...

There it is. .... Sorry.
