Interesting theres not more of this subject on here.

Im beginning work on a Abra Ca Dabra and notice two of the lugs on the female side of the jones plug between the cab and the head are broken off(wire still attached). To the best of my knowledge these plugs are no longer produced nor reproduced. Is it safe to assume that the fix is simply to solder the wire to any remaining part of the specific lug on the JP base?

I would be also interested to see and read about other JP fixes, hacks, or other information as to what people have seen in the field. Would be a good learning tool for others to research about such an important piece of these games.

I appreciate the offer of parts!! Thanks, but the severity of the broken piece is minor and can be soldered on for sure. The reason for the post was to bring more attention to this subject. There are no real modern replacements that I can find, which is interesting. So in short, if needed badly, the answer is to find old parts or maybe even go as far as using molex connectors. It would be awesome if someone repo'ed this part!
