Need part number of Chassis side connector for TPS connection

[sck_nogas]

On my Delica, the wiring from the chassis to the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) has a wire broken on it, right at the waterproof potting...

​

So, I just need to replace the connector and splice in the three wires. But, I can't seem to find the right page in for that side of the plug? Do I need to buy the "complete engine wiring harness" aka MB802255 to get the one connector? Or is it in the Injection Pump Wiring Harness aka MD155273?

Anyone got a suggestion? (I know I can just go get another 3 wire connector (male/female pair) and change out the one on the TPS side as well, but looking to stay "factory" as possible.

99.9% sure it's the injection pump harness, which plugs into the under floor front wiring harness.
I'm pretty sure it's connector 44 in the diagram (which is mislabeled as "water temp gauge unit").

On your Delica, is that a separate connector? Mine is wired directly into the main engine harness (along the back of the engine compartment)


The orange is the TPS (with broken wire) the Red is the on that goes to the IP, and the Green is the main engine wire bundle. No other connectors back there.

I haven't ever really looked.
But it looks right in the parts diagrams; maybe the connector is a lot farther along? The parts diagram indicates it is longer than shown...

On my Delica the wires from the IP are wrapped into the main bundle just where the red part merges into the green. It's all one bundle from there. So, I could unwrap the bundle to "explore"...

Don't know if these are the correct ones. For this price I would find another solution.

Most of these connectors can be taken apart. The male pins and female portions have prongs that hold them in the connector. So it is just finding the right place to push a pin or release tool into the connector to release the pin.

^Nice work!

Just a note, the "potting" you see is really a rubber seal. If you eject the pins from the connector (pull the coloured plastic lock tab, then use a small screwdriver down one of the holes to push back the plastic locking tab) you can extract the pin, and from there you might be able to make a temporary repair: remove the rubber seal, and use the metal tabs that held the seal to crimp the wire.
