Default Re: Rcm issues

Hey zip439 that’s what I’m feeling is the issue but those tube style electrical connectors I’ve never seen before on any other car besides this one… I see the connector has tabs where you can open it up like a door. I’m curious if one of a few of those female tubes may have snapped where it crimps onto the wire itself. I’m guessing opening up each one … one by one. Is the only way to see. I will say that two of the 5 connectors are super loose and can almost just slide out on their own. Whereas three of them once connected require a good wiggle while holding the connector to get them to disconnect from the male side. Rcm side. To the point where it lifts the entire rcm box up out of its home 5-10 mm. Those two I mentioned when I grab the female connector and pull it just slides right out as if there is no resistance at all. Rcm box doesn’t even move I can do it with 1 finger . Something about it just doesn’t seem right. Do you or anyone on this forum know of anywhere that sells these connectors. I have knowledge with crimping butt connectors,Soldering, and finishing off with shrink tubing but Obviously circuit boards I’d rather have someone like tighed1 do that portion of the work. If I can’t find replacement connectors I’m contemplating just cutting every wire leaving all connectors still attached to the rcm and sending it to tighed1 that way he can check connections on the connectors themselves when doing the resolver. And when I get it back , hopefully all connections will be tight and sound and all I’ll have to do is Butt connect, crimp, and shrink tube all 20 or so wires. Please chime in tighed1 if this is something your able to do.
