I decided to replace a burned out bulb in the fog/running light below the headlight. This is the light that blinks yellow with the turn signal but blicks white when you hit the unlock/lock button. This is the light located below the headlights. When I went in there, I found that a PO had cut the wires leading to the bulb fitting. I don't have the female connector to fit into the male plug (see pictures). Is there a cross reference part for this so I can pick up the female plus with pigtails at a local auto parts store or do I need to find a junk yard somewhere and cut one off a car? The Mini is an '04.

 

I believe this is your corner light, just pill the bulb straight up from the plastic holder, It is a w5w or T10 bulb.

 

It's not the bulb I'm looking for. At the end of the plastic holder it requires a female connector that is connected to the wiring loom. A PO had cut the wires leading to this light and the female connector is missing. I need a female connector with pig tails so I can tie it back into the wiring loom and plug it back into this light.

 

Part # 63138360205.....available at ECS for $9.07 That should be the right part

 

Thanks for mention 1 qwkmini.

Think the plug end is the same as the ones used on the side markers.

Just fixed my side markers ( fender arch ) ones with that per plug.


We Have the Led light kit for those outer front bumper marker lights, ( *not the orange flashing ones ). Replaces the stock filament wedge bulb and used the stock socking and everything.

Yep. That looks like what I need. So I need one electrical connector plug plus two of the bushing contacts? How is the bushing contact connected to the plug. Does the plug open up whereby one inserts the bushing connectors and then snaps it shut or something like that? Thanks for your help.

 

Yep, two wires, one plug per connection. Insert plugs into circle holes on the back. In the right direction, use the old plug as a guide, they snap in. Has little seal gasket, then on the plug head the little white part , then get pushed over and snaps shut, its open and ready to take the plugs in the pics.

Thanks

 

I suppose you mean insert wires into plug. I don't have the old plug. Apparently the previous owner cut the wires going to the light (the male black plug in my pictures which I have) and threw away the female plug that connects to the male plug. That's why I have to find the replacement. Is there a number where I can call you and make sure I understand the directions and order the parts? Thanks.

 

Ok, I can explain it more.

Take the plug , turn it to this side:



See the two holes.



Take this plug end, look deep inside the two holes, they will be square on the inside and insert into the holes. The bottom part of the square plug inserts into the holes with the prong part clicking into the open notch which you can see in the pic of the plug end.




Then snap the white part of the plug over the blue part by slightly pressing it together, should click. Then you are ready to strip the ends of the wires and connect to the older wire, make sure they are clean , soldering them together and them wrap electrical tape or shrink wrap and your done. I always test a bulb into the new plug to make sure the wires are not polarity sensitive. Then I soldered it all in.




Thanks

 

I got the parts. Are the wires, once inserted, suppose to "click" and take hold? no matter which way I insert the wires they don't catch. I see how the white part will slide back and forth. I thought maybe the white part locks the wires in place but it seems to have no affect on the wires.

 

Once the bushing wires are lined up in the connector you need to push HARD collapsing the black ribbed collars...just takes more pressure than you would think.

Try again.

 

That small tab sticking up at the top has to get beyone the point of catching.
