In my experience, this is most easily a junk-yard item. You can often find
the whole harness either thrown (somewhere) around the van, or in the motor
box.


I've never looked specifically for the connectors, but if you can get your
hands on a BIG Bosch catalog (the one with ALL of their products for all
autos) you could find those connectors in there. They are (from general
observation) the same connectors as are used on Ford's 1990's era FI (which
I think is Motronic?).


I have seen this Bosch catalog (meaning, it exists) but I have no clue
where or when I saw it. I have some industrial clients, and it could have
been in a factory setting.


Best of luck.

Hello from Atlanta.  I need to replace connectors on my cable--thermo time
switch and cold start valve ones have cracked--FLAPS said they are not
available except through vw dealer, Bus Depot has neither connectors or
complete cable with all connectors.  Questions:  Is this dealer only item?
Where can I find replacement of connectors or entire unit?  Thanks!
Regards, Christina and Michael Nichols, Atlanta '81 Weekender
